Steps:
- Heat oven to 350°F. Make cookies as directed on box. Cool completely, at least 15 minutes. Set aside 2 cookies for garnish.
- In food processor, process half of the remaining cookies to fine crumbs. Remove and set aside; continue to process second half of remaining cookies to fine crumbs. Mix all of cookie crumb mixture in food processor. Add cream cheese and peanut butter. Process until well combined and mixture can be pressed into a ball, 1 to 2 minutes. Shape cookie mixture into 50 (1 1/4-inch) balls; place on cookie sheet lined with waxed paper. Refrigerate 15 minutes.
- In medium bowl, microwave chocolate chips and shortening uncovered on High 60 to 90 seconds or until mixture can be stirred smooth. Place 2 reserved cookies into quart-size resealable food-storage plastic bag. Seal bag; finely crush cookies with rolling pin. Set aside crushed cookie crumbs for garnish of truffles.
- Remove half of the cookie balls from refrigerator. Using 2 forks, dip and roll chilled cookie balls, one at a time, in melted chocolate. Return to lined cookie sheet; immediately sprinkle top with crushed cookie crumbs. If chocolate has cooled too much, reheat. Refrigerate truffles about 10 minutes or until coating is set. Repeat with second half of cookie balls. Store covered in refrigerator.
