Instructions

1

In a food processor, pulse the expired cookies until they become fine crumbs.

2

Add the cream cheese to the food processor and pulse until well combined.

3

Using your hands, roll the mixture into small truffle-sized balls. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

4

Chill the truffles in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to firm up.

5

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips in short intervals, stirring in between until smooth.

6

Dip each truffle into the melted chocolate, ensuring they are fully coated. Use a fork to remove excess chocolate.

7

Optional: Roll the coated truffles in sprinkles or crushed nuts for additional flavor and texture.

8

Place the coated truffles back on the parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate until the chocolate sets.

9

Store the cookie truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
