3 Gals and a Kitchen was created one evening after three friends with a passion for food decided to create a blog for sharing their favorite recipes along with scrumptious photos! After all, it would alleviate the growing problem of overloading their cell phones with constant recipe exchanges. We hope our friends, family, and the blogging community will be as excited about trying our favorite recipes as we are about sharing them with you. Enjoy!

Katie's Cookies 'n Cream Truffles
Check out these little jewels! My soon-to-be cousin, Katie was kind enough to share her recipe for these delicious truffles. They are t0 die for and are as sweet as she is :) Thanks, Katie!
Ingredients
8 Oreo cookies
4 oz. cream cheese
1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
1 teaspoon powdered sugar (optional)
Directions
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the cookies in a food processor and pulse into fine crumbs (or put the cookies in a Ziploc bag and crush - which is what Katie does). Add the cream cheese and pulse until mixed. Use a teaspoon to scoop the cookie mixture into small balls. Place the cookie balls on the baking sheet, cover with plastic and freeze until firm - for about 1 hour.
Microwave the chocolate chips and stir. Then nuke for 30 more seconds and stir again. Dip the cookie balls into the chocolate using a toothpick or fork and place back onto the baking sheet. Put the powdered sugar into a sieve and lightly dust the truffles. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze until firm - about 1 hour. Serve cold.
xoxo,
