Cinnamon Cookie Truffles
Ingredients:
- 1 package (12.2 ounces) Cinnamon Sandwich Cookies
- 8 ounces of cream cheese (1 brick)
- 1 cup of vanilla icing/frosting
- ¼ cup cinnamon sugar
Instructions:
- Line a baking sheet with wax paper and set aside.
- Place cookies in a sealable bag to crush. (I use a meat hammer!). Crush until you have a bag full of cookie crumbles. If you prefer a crunchier cookie, leave more chucks. If you prefer a more smooth bite, crush more finely.
- Add cookie crumbles to mixing bowl.
- Add room temperature cream cheese and mix with a spoon until well combined. If you are a cinnamon lover (like me!) you can add 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon while mixing for some extra cinnamon flavor.
- Using about 1 tablespoon per serving, roll mix into balls and place onto wax paper lined baking sheet.
- Place in freezer for about 15 minutes to harden.
- Remove from freezer. Heat 1 cup of icing in the microwave for about 15 seconds and stir well. Pour slowly or spoon over cookie balls. Garnish each cookie ball with a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar and place in refrigerator for about 1 hour.
- Cookie balls can be frozen (sealed) for about 1 week. Cool to room temperature before eating.
Makes about 24 cookies. Cookie balls can be rolled in icing for a thicker coating (and a sweeter treat!). You could also try cream cheese icing or even chocolate icing for a cinnamon/chocolate treat. Make it your own!
