Happy Valentine's Day!!! Oreo Truffle Pops & Heart Shaped Pizzas!


Our Mini-Pizza Crust


I love holidays and they are even more fun when you have kids because you get to break out all kind of cutesy recipes!  :)  For Valentine's Day, we made mini-heart pizzas and Oreo Truffle Pops.  They are both fairly easy and very festive. 
Our finished project

We used Pillsbury thin crust pizza dough.  I rolled the dough out, used a heart shaped cookie cutter and baked them @ 400 for approximately 10 minutes depending on how big your hearts are.  I let them cool overnight.  The next day, the kids sprinkled them with the toppings of their choice and broiled them for approximately 1 minute.  We used the mini-pepperonis and they were so cute!  The kids loved them!


For the Oreo truffles, I make the truffles and after they are completely cooled, I insert a sucker stick for easy handling and to make my bouquet/center piece. 

The recipe is:
1 box Oreos
1 8 oz block of cream cheese @ room temperature
your choice of melting chocolates (I use white chocolate)

You crush all the Oreos up in a blender of food processor.  After they are all crushed up, add in the block of cream cheese and mix.  Refrigerate the mixture for about 1 hour.  Roll the mixture into balls and dip in the melted chocolate and add sprinkles!  Super cute, yummy and a great center piece!
