I couldn't help myself. I need to get out of candy canes. I know, it's not even Thanksgiving Yet, but the candy cane and peppermint and chocolate goodies in store shelves called me.
And so I have to do things like cones candy cane Oreo truffles. I made a few Oreo Truffle cones for Halloween and I must say, I really like to use the mini cone. They aren't as messy as just for dipping truffles and they seem pretty much easier to dip rather than appearing on a stick. And no bake, gotta love it.
