Step 1
Prepare a large cookie sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
Step 2
In a medium mixing bowl mix together the crushed nutter butter cookies (reserving about ¼ cup for garnishing the final product), cream cheese and vanilla using an electric hand or stand mixer. Blend until the mixture is “dough-like”.
Step 3
Using a 1-½ inch cookie scoop, scoop the mixture and roll into 1 - 1-½ inch balls. Use the palms of your hands to smooth and round each ball. Do this until the mixture is completely used. See notes for additional tips.
Step 4
Place each truffle ball on the sheet of parchment paper and place inside the refrigerator for 1 hour.
Step 5
About 5-10 minutes before the chilling time is complete, begin to prepare your melting chocolate. Place the wafers in a microwave safe bowl and heat on 50% power or on defrost mode for 1 minute. Stir with a fork and add the crisco shortening. Return to the microwave for an additional 30 seconds. Repeat until the wafers are silky smooth. See notes for additional tips.
Step 6
Using two forks or dipping tools, dip each truffle ball into the melted chocolate, covering it completely. Roll the ball, working it into the chocolate to cover it completely.
Step 7
Place each chocolate covered truffle on parchment paper and top with a large pinch of the nutter butter crumbs. Repeat this process for each truffle, working one at a time.
Step 8
Place inside the refrigerator and allow to cool for an additional 30 minutes before serving.
