Ingredients
Scale
1 package (14.3 oz) Oreo cookies
8 oz cream cheese, softened
16 oz semi-sweet chocolate melting wafers or chips
Instructions
Place all Oreo cookies, filling included, into a food processor. Pulse until you have fine crumbs.
Transfer the crumbs to a medium bowl. Add the softened cream cheese.
Mix the crumbs and cream cheese together using a hand mixer or sturdy spoon until fully combined and a dough forms.
Roll the mixture into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Chill the rolled balls in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
Melt the chocolate according to package directions, usually in a microwave safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval until smooth.
Dip each chilled Oreo ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Use a fork to lift it out, allowing excess chocolate to drip off.
Return the coated balls to the parchment-lined baking sheet.
Refrigerate the finished Oreo Balls for about 15 minutes, or until the chocolate coating is set.
Notes
If you do not have a food processor, place cookies in a large zip-top bag and crush them thoroughly with a rolling pin.
For easier dipping, insert a toothpick into the bottom of each ball before coating, then remove the toothpick after dipping.
You can substitute the semi-sweet chocolate with milk chocolate or white chocolate for coating.
