Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package (15.35 oz) Oreo cookies
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 ½ cups white chocolate chips (or candy melts)
- Food coloring (pastel shades for Easter theme)
- Sprinkles or decorations (optional)
Instructions
- Crush the Oreo cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a plastic bag and crushing them with a rolling pin.
- In a large bowl, mix the Oreo crumbs with the softened cream cheese until fully combined. The mixture should be thick and sticky.
- Roll the mixture into small balls, about 1 inch in size, and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Chill the balls in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
- While the Oreo balls chill, melt the white chocolate chips (or candy melts) in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth.
- Add food coloring to the melted chocolate to create pastel colors (such as pink, yellow, lavender, or blue).
- Dip each chilled Oreo ball into the melted colored chocolate, using a fork to coat them completely, then place them back on the parchment paper.
- Optional: Decorate with sprinkles, candy, or drizzle with contrasting colored chocolate.
- Chill the decorated Oreo balls for another 15-20 minutes until the chocolate hardens.
- Serve and enjoy!
Notes
- If you prefer to keep it simple, you can skip the food coloring and use regular white chocolate.
- For an extra crunchy texture, you can roll the balls in crushed nuts or additional Oreo crumbs after dipping them in chocolate.
- These Oreo balls can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
