The flavoured Vodka’s finally hit Canada after months of tempting ads and Pinterst pins . . . why does it take so long to get anything to Canada?? I really don’t get it. Is our government so much more rigid that the rules for companies are that much greater? All I wanted me was some Cake Vodka! Well, I finally got it . . . it took a great connection at the local liquor store to make it happen 🙂 Marshmallow vodka is my Bestest’s favourite . . . but I’m sticking with cake!
This recipe is a combination of a traditional Oreo truffle (using cookies and cream cheese), which I posted about a while ago here, but instead of using plain ole Oreos, you have to get yourself some Birthday Oreos!! They are so delish, and are bound to make you happy as they have sprinkles in them! Life is better with sprinkles.
What would go better with birthday Oreos than a cold glass of milk, right? Wrong. Cake Batter Vodka! I used the vodka in the chocolate coating that covers the truffle, and they are goooooooood.
To make the truffles, you are going to need the following ingredients:
One bag Oreo Cookies (Birthday ones if you can find them)
8 ounces chocolate chips (or baking chocolate)
8 ounces cream cheese
Vodka (optional) . . . Cake Batter flavour . . . I’m using Three Olives brand in my video
Procedure: Have look at the video for more details
Crush the cookies into crumbs, and combine with the cream cheese. Roll into small balls (about 1″) and then allow them to cool in the fridge, or freezer. I prefer the freezer as it makes them easier to work with later on.
Next up you’ll need to melt your chocolate and combine it with the vodka. Once it is melted, you will drop one ball at a time into the chocolate, ensure that it is coated evenly, and then take it out to harden on parchment, or wax paper. If you are wanting to decorate the tops with anything, you will need to do it while the chocolate is still wet.
You can store these in an airtight container . . . I prefer in the fridge as I like them cool . . . and enjoy!
MMMMMMMMMMMMarshmallow vodka!! 🙂
P.S. Where was I during this truffle taste-test? These look delish!
I made them a loooong time ago, but I’m frantically trying to catch up all of my videos into posts! Next up is my recipe page!
