DIY: Oreo Truffles! ♥


Hey girls!

I know you guys love sweets as much as I do, so therefore today I am presenting you with DIY Oreo Truffles! The fun part is, NO BAKING IS NEEDED! You guys know how much I love making sweets without having to bake. These truffles are super fun to make, super easy, and may I tell you super pretty! They make great gifts, snacks at a party, or simply just for yourself! Oreo lovers will love this, but so will any chocolate/sweets lover!





Here's how you can make this delicious snack!

WHAT YOU'LL NEED:
♥ 1 pack of Oreos 
♥ 1 cup of Cream Cheese (Original)
♥ Chocolate Chips
♥ Cupcake Liners (Optional)

STEP BY STEP:
♥ Take your Oreos and smash them until they reach a powdery consistency. You can use a food processor, or put the Oreos (some at a time) in a big ziplock bag and crush them.
♥ Take your Cream Cheese, and mix the Oreos and the Cream Cheese together in a big bowl. Although the required amount of Cream Cheese is 1 cup, I suggest adding the cream cheese a little a time. Start with half a cup, and if the oreo does not yet meet a dough consistency, add more cream cheese. Be careful not to add too much, otherwise it will reach a runny consistency. You want it almost like dough, where you are able to mold it.
♥ Mold the Oreo "dough" to a round circle shape.
♥ Melt your chocolate chips and dip the oreo truffles into the chocolate. Put it on a wax sheet.
♥ You can melt white chocolate, and drizzle white chocolate on top, or while it's still wet, take some oreo crumbs and spread them on top.
♥ Put the Oreo truffles into the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes (depending). The colder they are, the better they taste. It is optional to put them on cupcake liners (for appearances only).

TUTORIAL:

& you're finished! How easy was that? These taste absolutely delicious! Do not worry about the cream cheese making it taste weird, all you taste is yummy oreos and chocolate! Have fun making it, and tell me if you guys try it and what you think about it!

Rocky Road Bundles! ♥

Hey guys!

Today I got a really exciting post to share with you guys! Rocky Road Bundles! Say whaat? As you can probably tell, this dessert is based off of the Rocky Road flavour (I think?) Its ingredients are: Peanut Butter, Chocolate Chips, Marshmallows and anything crispy! Originally when I found this recipe, it included Ramen to be the crispy part, but I didn't like the idea of adding Ramen plus I didn't have any Ramen lying around the house...So, I tried the recipe with Lucky Charms Cereal instead. There are many things you can substitute Cereal/Ramen with. You can try using Rice Krispies Cereal or Almonds (Nuts), anything crunchy really. I mean, this IS Rocky Road.

Watch the tutorial here: tutorial 








Aren't they just the coolest? Oh, and here's the best part, NO BAKING IS NEEDED! Yeah, awesome right? Usually having to put things in the oven either is; tiring, chance of burning, time consuming, and messy! But this recipe only requires you to put it in the freezer. Usually the recommended time you leave it in the freezer is an hour, but in my case since I used an actual big freezer, it only took about 30 minutes. They stay pretty frozen on their own, so there's no worries that it will melt the moment you take it out of the freezer. You will get some chocolate on your fingers, but that doesn't worry me. I love licking my chocolate filled fingers! Hahahha. This recipe is absolutely delicious, crunchy, chewy, absolutely a must try. 

TIPS/NOTES:

♥Even though the recipe requires for you to put 1 cup of Peanut butter, I recommend you put less. Unless you want the peanut butter taste, put only half a cup or estimate how much Peanut butter taste you want in your Rocky Road bundles. 

♥Other ingredients you can use to make it crunchy are: Nuts (Preferably chopped Almonds), Rice Krispies, Other Cereals. Anything that is crunchy. Experiment!

♥Even though I mentioned that it does not melt easily, I still do not recommend you leave it out for too long. It belongs back in the freezer after you've eaten it. 

♥You do not need to completely follow the recipe. You can experiment, depending on your taste you may add more or less of the ingredients (the marshmallows, cereal, etc) 

Alright then, good luck! Let me know if you tried this and how it went for you!
