See this content in the original post

I love Oreos and I have made the Easy Oreo Truffles plenty of times, so this time I decided to try a variation. I bought the Candy Cane Joe-Joe's from Trader Joe's, which are chocolate sandwich cookies filled with candy cane filling, and then used the same Easy Oreo Truffle recipe subbing these for the original Oreos.
