Let ice cream stand at room temperature 15 minutes to soften. Meanwhile, line a baking sheet with parchment paper, and place in freezer. Process cookies in a food processor 1 minute or until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Pour cookie crumbs into a shallow dish. Scoop ice cream into small balls using a 1 1/4-inch ice-cream scoop, and roll in cookie crumbs. Arrange on prepared baking sheet in freezer. Freeze truffles at least 30 minutes or up to 24 hours
wow. next year I'm getting a box of those to try this out :)
