What are Nutter Butter Cookies?

- 1 (16 oz) package of Nutter Butter Cookies
- 1 (8 oz) block of cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 lb White Almond Bark, melted
- 1/2 lb Chocolate Almond Bark, melted

How to Make Nutter Butter Truffles:
- Crush the Cookies:
Start by placing the Nutter Butter cookies in a food processor and pulse until they are finely crumbled. This will form the base of your truffles. - Mix with Cream Cheese:
Add the softened cream cheese to the cookie crumbs and mix until fully combined. The cream cheese will help bind the mixture together, giving the truffles that smooth, creamy texture. - Shape the Truffles:
Roll the mixture into small balls using your hands. To keep them uniform in size, a cookie scoop works great. Place each ball onto a wax paper-lined baking sheet. - Chill:
Pop the pan in the freezer for about 20 minutes to allow the truffles to firm up. - Melt the Almond Bark:
Follow the package directions to melt both the white and chocolate almond bark. - Dip in Chocolate:
Use a fork to dip each peanut butter ball into the melted almond bark, coating them evenly. Be careful not to remove the almond bark while placing the truffles back onto the wax paper. - Let Them Set:
Allow the truffles to harden completely. Once they’re set, drizzle the opposite flavor of almond bark over the top for a decorative touch.
Perfect for Any Occasion
