Snowballs

I have been waiting and waiting and waiting for it to snow.  I know that there will be PLENTY of snow this winter.  There always is.  But...I always get excited about the first snow.

I decided that I wanted to start a tradition at our house that when we have the first snow we make Snowballs.  Finally, after Thanksgiving, it snowed.  I could make snowballs.  Apparently I still wasn't recovered from our Thanksgiving journey over the river and through the woods, so I kept running out of steam, and it turned into a 3 day process.  But I finished... and they are almost gone.

Please remember: these can be made any time of year (as can all "Christmas cookies.")  I first had these at one of my bridal showers that happened in April or May.  Try them-- they're pretty easy.

SNOWBALLS

1 packaged Oreos, crushed (we used the food processor this year and it worked like a dream)

1 package cream cheese, softened

1 package almond bark, melted

Mix the Oreos with the cream cheese.  Roll into balls and chill (I freeze them).  Dip in almond bark and place on wax paper.  Refrigerate.

Yum!
