Ingredients
  

For the Oreo Balls
  • 1 pack Oreo cookies (approximately 15-18 cookies)
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened Ensure it's at room temperature for best mixing results.
  • 1 cup chocolate chips (semi-sweet or milk chocolate) For coating the balls.
  • to taste sprinkles for decoration Optional.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Crush the Oreos: Place the Oreo cookies in a food processor and pulse until finely crushed. If you don’t have a food processor, crush them in a sealed plastic bag with a rolling pin.
  2. Mix Cream Cheese: In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed Oreos and softened cream cheese. Blend until fully combined and smooth.
  3. Shape the Mixture: Scoop out about a tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a ball shape. Place each ball on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  4. Chill the Balls: Refrigerate the baking sheet for about 30 minutes to firm up the balls.
  5. Melt the Chocolate: While the balls chill, melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth.
  6. Coat the Oreo Balls: Dip each chilled ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it's fully coated. Use a fork to remove it and let any excess chocolate drip off.
  7. Add Toppings: If using sprinkles or other toppings, add them before the chocolate sets.
  8. Set and Serve: Return the Oreo Balls to the fridge for 15-20 minutes, or until the chocolate is set.

Notes

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. To freeze, place in a sealed container with parchment paper between layers for up to three months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight before serving.
