The countdown to Christmas has begun! One of the things I look forward to this time of year is spreading a little love and Christmas cheer to those around me. I love spending the weekend baking some unique and delicious cookies and then wrapping them in cute little festive containers to hand out to my neighbors. I found this recipe this morning and couldn't wait to share it with you all...this is one of many I'll be sharing I'm sure...

"These truffles are very easy and delicious. You can't go wrong with OREO, cream cheese and chocolate!"

So, how do you spread a little Christmas cheer with your neighbors? I'd love to hear your thoughts and am always looking for new ideas to share...HELPFUL TIP: I used "Candi Quik" instead of bakers chocolate in this recipe. It's much easier, you can find it in the baking isle of the grocery store (or even walmart) and it has microwave instructions on the back...I LOVE IT!
Have a beautiful weekend, everyone!
