Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package (14.3 oz) Oreo cookies, about 36 cookies
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 16 ounces melting chocolate (semisweet or milk chocolate wafers)
Instructions
- Place the entire Oreo cookies, including the filling, into a food processor. Pulse until you have fine crumbs.
- Transfer the Oreo crumbs to a medium bowl. Add the softened cream cheese.
- Mix the crumbs and cream cheese together using a hand mixer or a sturdy spoon until the mixture is completely combined and forms a thick dough.
- Roll the dough into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter. You should get about 30 to 35 balls. Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Chill the Oreo balls in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes until firm. This step prevents them from falling apart when dipping.
- Melt the chocolate according to package directions. You can use a double boiler or microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring well between each interval.
- Dip each chilled Oreo ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Use a fork or a dipping tool to lift the ball out, allowing excess chocolate to drip off.
- Return the coated balls to the parchment-lined baking sheet.
- If desired, immediately drizzle with melted white chocolate or add festive sprinkles before the coating sets.
- Refrigerate the finished Oreo Balls for about 15 minutes, or until the chocolate coating is completely firm.
Notes
- If you do not have a food processor, place the cookies in a large zip-top bag and crush them thoroughly with a rolling pin.
- For a smoother coating, stir 1 teaspoon of vegetable shortening or coconut oil into the melted chocolate.
- Make ahead desserts like these keep well in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
