Oreo Truffle Brownies
One of my favorite go-to desserts for the holidays are Oreo Truffles (or as I call them – Balls from Heaven!). They are delicious, easy to make and I don’t know one person who doesn’t like them. They are great for cookie exchanges, holiday parties or any family get-together. Since my friends and family seem to expect me to show up with Oreo Truffles these days, when I saw these brownies on Pinterest, I knew I had to try them. That’s right – let’s combine Oreo Truffles and brownies. Match made in heaven, right?!? Yes, sir-ee! 🙂
If you are looking to bring something delicious to your next gathering, you have to try these deliciously, rich Oreo Truffle Brownies.

I made this for my baby and shower and again for the office thanksgiving luncheon – it was such a big hit!!! the best was cutting them into bite size so people don’t feel too bad and eating a dozen of them.
