Delicious and easy-to-make Oreo Balls that combine creamy cream cheese and crushed Oreo cookies coated in smooth melted chocolate. These bite-sized treats are perfect for parties, holidays, or anytime you crave a sweet, no-bake dessert.

Ingredients

Base

  • 1 8-ounce package cream cheese, softened (brick-style, 226 grams)
  • 36 regular Oreo cookies (whole, no need to remove filling)

Coating

  • 16 ounces chocolate of choice: semi-sweet, milk, or white chocolate (452 grams)

Instructions

  1. Prepare baking sheet: Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside to prevent sticking.
  2. Crush Oreos: Place the whole Oreo cookies in a food processor or blender and pulse until they become fine crumbs. Transfer the crumbs to a large mixing bowl, reserving 1–2 tablespoons for garnish if desired.
  3. Mix with cream cheese: Add the softened cream cheese to the bowl with the Oreo crumbs. Using a handheld mixer, blend until fully combined, scraping down the sides to ensure even mixing.
  4. Shape balls: Measure out about one tablespoon of the mixture at a time and roll it into a ball using your hands. Place each ball on the prepared baking sheet.
  5. Chill: Once all balls are formed, place the baking sheet in the freezer for at least 20 minutes to allow them to firm up.
  6. Melt chocolate: Chop the chocolate and put it in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 20–30 second increments, stirring well after each interval, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
  7. Coat Oreo balls: Dip each chilled Oreo ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring full coverage, then place it back on the baking sheet. While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle the reserved Oreo crumbs on top for garnish.
  8. Set chocolate coating: Refrigerate the coated Oreo balls for at least 20 minutes or until the chocolate has fully set and hardened.
  9. Serve: Once the chocolate is set, the Oreo balls are ready to enjoy as a sweet and creamy treat.

Notes

  • You can use any type of chocolate you prefer for coating, such as semi-sweet, milk, or white chocolate.
  • Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature for easy mixing.
  • Store the finished Oreo balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
  • For a festive touch, try drizzling additional melted chocolate of a contrasting color over the coated balls.
  • If you don’t have a food processor, place the Oreo cookies in a sealed plastic bag and crush them with a rolling pin until finely ground.
