Easy Oreo Truffles w/ the YW

For our Young Women's activity last night we made these YUMMY! Oreo Truffles for Valentine's treats. I had totally planned on making them before the activity so that when I was telling the girls what to do I would have some kind of clue. Well I kept putting it off and off. And ended up never making them thinking they would take so long. But they don't. I was reading over the recipe before the activity and not quite following it right (if you want the recipe click on Yummy and it will take you to it). So I gave my great friend Heidi a call, 20 minutes before the activity and she gave me the best hint- to use a food processor or blender to crush up the cookies and cream in the cream cheese. I was able to round up some machines before the activity. Let me tell you it made the process go a lot quicker. We had 12 girls show up to the activity it was tight in the church kitchen but they had fun. I still haven't made any myself or even tasted one but I here they are really good. I wonder if you use different flavors of Oreo if they are still good. Here are a couple pictures from the night.
One of the Beehives and a babysitter our kids love.
She is rolling the mixture into balls.

We lost a spoon in the chocolate.
Can you find it?
Julie, Rachel and Cassiady really got into the chocolate.
They also tried making a snowman out of the stuff,
but it melted!

Rachel even made chocolate lipstick YUM!
