Steps:
- Place the cookies in a food processor and pulse them until they are fine crumbs. Alternately, you can use a mixer if you watch it carefully and stir the cookies so that they are evenly crushed.
- Transfer the cookie crumbs to a medium bowl. Add the softened cream cheese and peanut butter, and stir with a spoon until the mixture is a homogenous paste. It should be easy to mold into balls, but not too wet or soggy.
- Use a small candy or cookie scoop, or a teaspoon, to shape small balls. Roll them between your hands to get them perfectly round, and place on a cookie sheet covered with aluminum foil. Although the balls can be dipped right away, they hold together better if they are refrigerated for at least an hour before being dipped.
- After the candy centers have chilled, place the chocolate candy coating in a large microwave-safe bowl and microwave it until melted, stirring after every minute to prevent overheating.
- Using dipping tools or a fork, dip each peanut ball in the chocolate candy coating and replace it on the foil-covered baking sheet. If desired, top the truffles with chopped peanuts while the chocolate is still wet.
- Refrigerate the truffles to set the chocolate for about 20 minutes. Store Nutter Butter Truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.

Steps:
- Set Philadelphia Cream Cheese out to soften about 20 minutes. Place Nutter Butter cookies in food processor, breaking down to fine crumbs.

Blend to the consistency of cookie dough. Using a small cookie dough scoop, portion out the mixture until all is scooped.
- Melt chocolate candy coating according to package directions in an 8 inch by 8 inch microwave safe dish.
- Drop scooped portions into chocolate a few at a time, rolling to coat evenly using chopsticks or bamboo skewers. Transfer to a cookie sheet with a layer of wax paper on it.
- Once all scooped portions are coated, transfer to a refrigerator for a couple of hours. Store refrigerated.

Tips:
- To make perfectly round truffles, chill the mixture for at least 30 minutes before rolling. This will help the mixture to firm up and make it easier to shape.
- If the mixture is too sticky, add more powdered sugar until it reaches a consistency that is easy to roll.
- If the mixture is too dry, add a little bit of heavy cream until it reaches a consistency that is easy to roll.
- To get a smooth and even coating, roll the truffles in the melted chocolate and then immediately roll them in the chopped nuts.
- Place the truffles in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will help the chocolate to set and the flavors to meld.
