Khadijah’s Oreo Truffles for Breakfast

Khadijah’s Oreo Truffles for Breakfast

Here is the recipe, the treat that Khadijah swears by when her sweet tooth takes over: Cookies and Cream Oreo Truffles. Three ingredients, no baking, all joy.

Khadijah is in the thick of her MD PhD program and somehow still manages to live almost entirely on sugar. She is the one who eats ice cream for breakfast without a second thought and calls it fuel. She is the one who will show up with a bag of candy (or crochet) in her backpack like it is part of her lab supplies. Her habits are undeniably strange but also undeniably her.

These truffles fit her perfectly. They are sweet, easy, and just a little bit indulgent, the kind of thing you can whip up in the middle of a busy week when your brain feels fried. They capture her knack for finding joy in the oddest routines and remind the rest of us that food can be playful too.

To Khadijah, thank you for bringing sweetness into our lives, even if it means occasionally eating dessert before the day has even begun.

Ps, i jUST FINISHED THESE AS I am typing this. They’re so good.
