Cinnamon Cookie Bites (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

01 - 8 oz cream cheese, brought to room temperature.
02 - 1 package (14.3 oz) golden Oreo cookies, about 36 pieces.
03 - 2 tsp cinnamon, ground.
04 - 1 tsp vanilla flavoring.
05 - 16 oz white almond bark for coating.
06 - Optional: Sprinkles for decoration.

# Instructions:

01 - Cover a baking tray with parchment paper, then place it aside for now.
02 - Use a food processor to grind the cookies into fine crumbs. Work in several rounds if needed.
03 - In a big bowl, mix together the cream cheese, cookie crumbs, cinnamon, and vanilla until smooth and combined.
04 - Roll the combined mixture into small 1-inch balls. Place them onto the lined tray.
05 - Put the tray in the fridge and chill the balls for at least an hour.
06 - Microwave the almond bark in short 30-second bursts, stirring between intervals until it's melted and smooth.
07 - Drop each ball into the melted bark, then use a fork or dipping tool to lift it out. Let the excess run off before putting it back on the tray.
08 - Sprinkle on toppings right away while the coating is still wet, if you'd like to add some sparkle.
09 - Let the coated truffles set in the fridge for another hour before serving or packing them up.

# Notes:

01 - Chill your truffle balls thoroughly before dipping to keep them from breaking apart.
