Target

FYI-I was just in Target last night (Sprague and Evergreen) and they had most of their Halloween stuff at 75% off. The candy was STILL at 50% off though. Oreos (Halloween ones), the ones with the orange in the middle were ONLY $0.74. Use the $1/2 Nabisco cookies Target coupon and/or use the Facebook coupon or the tear pad coupon found recently at Alberstons by the cookies for Save $1 when you buy Nabisco cookies and one gallon of milk.

Oreo deal:
Oreos $0.74 X2 ($1.48)
Milk $1.99 X1
-$1/2 Nabisco Cookies Target Coupon
-$1 when you buy cookies and milk (Manufacturer coupon)
= $1.47, making them JUST $0.49 EACH!!

Even without a coupon these Oreos are an awesome deal (if you don't mind the orange filling). I bought my for Christmas "baking." I know, I know the orange filling, but I am just going to crush them up and cover them in chocolate anyway.

Here is the recipe (not low-cal at all, but very yummy) that I will be using them in.

Homemade Truffles.....

1 package Oreo cookies
1 (8 oz) block of cream cheese, softened (just leave it out for a while before you start making this).
2 packages chocolate chips (I use whatever I have. I have even used M&Ms before).
Various items for toppings to make it look pretty (I have used crushed nuts and crushed candy cane)
1. Crush the oreos into fine crumbs (I just put in the blender).
2. Mix the oreo crumbs with softened cream cheese until it gets sticky and thick.
3. Roll into 1 to 2 inch balls (actually whatever size looks good to you).
4. Then, place them on a cookie sheet/cooling rack covered with wax paper.
4. Then, refrigerate for at least one hour.
5. While the truffle balls are chilling, slowly melt chocolate.
6. Drop one or two truffles at a time into the melted chocolate. (I used tongs to roll them and lift them).
7. Place on your wax paper.
6. You can now put your toppings on if you want to use toppings.
7. Now, chill them again and you are done.

These are so fun to make and SUPER easy.

This is a very well-liked recipe. If you try, I hope you enjoy.

Thanks!
