Ingredients

  • 36 regular Oreo cookies (do not remove the filling)

  • 1 (8 oz) block-style cream cheese, softened (226g)

  • 16 oz chocolate (semi-sweet, milk, or white—all work great)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Baking Sheet
    Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.

  2. Crush the Oreos
    Place all Oreos into a food processor or blender. Pulse until you have fine crumbs.
    Transfer to a large bowl, reserving 1–2 tablespoons of crumbs for topping.

  3. Make the Mixture
    Add softened cream cheese to the crushed Oreos.
    Using a hand mixer, beat until fully combined and smooth. Scrape down the sides as needed.

  4. Form the Balls
    Scoop and roll the mixture into 1-tablespoon sized balls.
    Place each ball on the prepared baking sheet.
    Freeze for at least 20 minutes to firm up.

  5. Melt the Chocolate
    Chop the chocolate and place it in a microwave-safe bowl.
    Microwave in 20–30 second increments, stirring after each, until completely melted and smooth.

  6. Coat the Oreo Balls
    Dip each chilled Oreo ball into the melted chocolate, fully coating it.
    Gently place back on the baking sheet.
    Sprinkle reserved Oreo crumbs on top while the coating is still wet.

  7. Chill to Set
    Refrigerate the coated Oreo balls for at least 20 more minutes, or until the chocolate has hardened.

  8. Serve & Enjoy
    Once firm, serve the Oreo Balls chilled or at room temperature. They’re perfect as a treat or a gift!
