Equipment
- Food processor (or rolling pin & ziplock bag for crushing Oreos)
- Mixing bowl
- Spatula or spoon
- Baking sheet
- Parchment paper
- Microwave-safe bowl (for melting chocolate)
- Fork or dipping tool
Ingredients
- 36 Oreo cookies 1 standard package
- 8 oz 226g cream cheese (softened)
- 12 oz 340g chocolate (semi-sweet, dark, or white chocolate for coating)
- Optional toppings:
- Sprinkles
- Crushed Oreos
- Drizzled white/dark chocolate
- Chopped nuts
Instructions
- Step 1: Crush the Oreos
- Place all 36 Oreo cookies into a food processor and pulse until fine crumbs form.
- If you don’t have a food processor, put the Oreos in a ziplock bag and crush them using a rolling pin until fine crumbs are achieved.
- Step 2: Mix with Cream Cheese
- Transfer the crushed Oreos to a large mixing bowl.
- Add the softened cream cheese and mix until well combined. The mixture should be smooth and dough-like.
- Step 3: Form the Balls
- Scoop out small portions of the Oreo mixture (about 1 inch in diameter) and roll them into smooth balls using your hands.
- Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Step 4: Chill the Balls
- Refrigerate the Oreo balls for at least 30 minutes or until they are firm.
- Step 5: Melt the Chocolate
- Place the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until smooth.
- Alternatively, melt the chocolate using a double boiler on the stove.
- Step 6: Dip the Oreo Balls in Chocolate
- Using a fork or dipping tool, dip each chilled Oreo ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it’s fully coated.
- Let excess chocolate drip off before placing the coated balls back onto the parchment paper.
- Step 7: Add Toppings & Let Them Set
- While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle toppings such as crushed Oreos, sprinkles, or drizzled chocolate.
- Allow the Oreo balls to set at room temperature or refrigerate for 15 minutes until the chocolate hardens.
- Step 8: Serve & Enjoy!
- Once the chocolate has set, transfer the Oreo balls to a serving plate and enjoy!
