Oreo Truffles

Since it’s the holiday season, I’ll post a recipe that I love to make for the holidays! Most of you may already know it, but for those that don’t, it’s very simple and delicious.

• 1 pkg of Oreo Cookies (any flavor, I use the mint flavored ones for Christmas)
• 1 – 8 oz pkg of cream cheese
• White/Chocolate Almond Bark
  

I put the Oreos in a food processor to get them crumbled really fine (I tried to use a blender once & it does not work). I dump the processed Oreos and cream cheese into a big bowl and mix together (with hands/spoon). To make the rolling process easier, I put the mix into the fridge for a little while (~30 min) so they’re not so gooey, then take it out and roll the mix into little/big balls. Mine get bigger as I get tired of rolling. You can then choose to refrigerate the balls to dip them later on, or go ahead and melt your bark and dip them and let them dry on wax paper. To make them look fancy I’ll use the opposite color I dipped them in and dip the tip of a fork in it and kind of sling the bark over the truffles (may be a little messy). ENJOY!

Yummy Chicken Enchiladas

12 Flour Tortillas
2 pkgs precooked fajita chicken strips
1 pkg shredded cheddar cheese
1 pkg taco seasoning
1 can diced green chilies
1 can cream of chicken
8-10 oz sour cream
garlic salt to taste

Chop chicken strips into small pieces and brown on the stove. Add small amount of water and the package of taco seasoning and cook a few more minutes. Fill each tortilla with the chicken and a small amount of cheese. Line the tortillas in a 9 by 13 pan. Mix cream of chicken, sour cream, green chilies, and garlic salt in separate bowl. (I put a small amount of the sauce mix on the bottom of the pan so that they tortillas don't get crispy when baking.) Pour the sauce over the enchiladas, sprinkle the remaining cheese on the top, and bake @ 350' for 20-25 minutes.
I also like to add a few jalapenos on the top of the cheese for extra heat and to make it look pretty!!
