Oreo Truffles - all dressed up for Valentine's Day

One of my favorite things about baking is sharing treats with my friends and family. Since I've had a lot of time on my hands recently, I decided to make some little Valentine's Day gifts. I had made these truffles for Christmas, and they were a huge hit, so I figured that I would dress them up for Valentine's Day and gift them as gifts. They turned out super cute, and were delicious as always!
