I love me some Southern Living, whether it's the site, the parties or the magazine (which I get on a monthly basis delivered to my little piece of heaven.)  After I pick up the mail, I plan dinner, baths and bedtimes around how interesting the cover looks; hence, more interesting, those boys are eating early, getting quick baths (if at all, I can do it tomorrow, right?) and only two stories, then nighty-night. 

White Chocolate Oreo Truffles

Oreo truffles are my go-to, last minute dessert when I need to bring something on short notice.  They are no bake and I often have all three of the ingredients: Oreos, cream cheese and chocolate chips.  And if I don't, I can improvise with the two main ingredients: oreos and chocolate chips (these cream cheese free creations will be featured in another post...)
