Indulge in these irresistible Oreo Balls that are made with just a few ingredients. This no-bake treat combines crushed Oreos with cream cheese to create a creamy, chocolaty, bite-sized dessert. Perfect for parties or as a sweet treat, these Oreo Balls will be a hit with everyone. Get ready to enjoy the combination of cookies and cream in every bite!

Ingredients

  • 1 package of Oreo cookies (36 cookies)
  • 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable shortening

Directions

  1. Crush the Oreo cookies in a food processor until finely ground.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed Oreos with the softened cream cheese. Mix well until the mixture is fully combined and forms a dough-like consistency.
  3. Roll the mixture into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  4. Place the baking sheet in the freezer for 10-15 minutes to firm up the Oreo balls.
  5. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips and vegetable shortening in the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring after each increment, until smooth and fully melted.
  6. Remove the Oreo balls from the freezer. Using a fork or toothpick, dip each ball into the melted chocolate, coating it completely. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off.
  7. Place the coated Oreo balls back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet.
  8. Optional: Decorate the Oreo balls with additional crushed Oreos, sprinkles, or drizzle with melted white chocolate.
  9. Once all the Oreo balls are coated and decorated, refrigerate them for at least 1 hour or until the chocolate is set.
  10. Serve and enjoy these delicious Oreo Balls!
