Hi Folks,

Does anyone happen to have a fun green recipe (I'm a beginner folks...;O) :rolleyes:

truffle ballsThis needs to be done ahead of time so is more of an "extra" recipe than one you would do at the show. Oreo Truffle Balls with mint oreos dipped in white chocolate that is dyed green...BEE

yummyI'm not a big oreo fan so I don't think they are that great but boy do I get request for the recipes. People LOVE these! The mint oreos get the most responses so put them in a simple additions container and pass them around at the show. Can't wait to see other thoughts for St. patty's day cause I'm having a show then too and just can't think of anything...BEE
