oreo balls

The site where I originally found this recipe reads, "Some call them Oreo Truffles but I think that’s a bit bold considering the ingredient list. Short, sweet, slightly scary."

OREO BALLS

1 lb Oreos, crushed

8 oz pkg cream cheese, room temp

chocolate for coating (options):

1 pkg white almond bark

2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

other type of chocolate

toppings for coating (options):

shredded sweetend coconut

cocoa powder

melted chocolate for drizzling

Pulse the Oreos in a food processor. Add cream cheese and mix until the “dough” is sticky and you can form it into balls.

Roll the dough into balls, place them on a baking sheet lined with waxed paper and freeze them for a minimum of 1-2 hours. You can freeze them for a week or two and dip later if you prefer.

Melt chocolate for coating over a med-low burner and dip the balls using a large spoon or tongs. Place them back on the waxed paper-lined baking sheet and freeze until the chocolate begins to harden. Roll in coconut, dust with cocoa powder or drizzle with chocolate if you like. Store them in the freezer.
