Yummy Chocolate Truffles

My sister-in-law made these for my family a year or so ago, and I recently tried making them myself. They are easy, but time consuming. I think they're a great treat to bring to your friends for the holidays!

1 pkg. Oreo's (you can also use mint creme oreo's for a chocolate mint flavored truffle)
1 8 oz. pkg cream cheese, softened
1-2 bags chocolate chips. You can use regular, white chocolate, or both!
spinkles-optional

Put all of oreos in a gallon zip lock bag. Crush in to crumbs with a rolling pin, or potato masher.
Combine oreos and soft cream cheese in a large bowl. Mix well (this will take some muscle!)
Refridgerate for atleast 1 hr.
Form into ping pong sized balls and put back in the fridge to become firm
Melt bag of choc chips over the stove using a double broiler
Dip the balls into the chocolate, completly coating them, then transfer to a cookie sheet
Decorate using sprinkles, or melt alternate chocolate chips and drizzle over the top.
Put back in the fridge until ready to eat.
