Ingredients

For the Oreo Balls

1 package (15.35 oz) Oreo cookies
8 oz cream cheese, softened
12 oz white chocolate chips
Food coloring (optional)
Sprinkles or edible glitter for decoration

Make sure to have all ingredients prepared before starting the recipe.

Instructions

Crush the Oreos

In a large bowl, crush the Oreo cookies into fine crumbs. You can use a food processor or place them in a zip-top bag and crush them with a rolling pin.

Mix with Cream Cheese

Add the softened cream cheese to the Oreo crumbs. Mix until well combined and the mixture is smooth.

Form the Balls

Using your hands, shape the mixture into small balls (about 1 inch in diameter) and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Chill the Balls

Freeze the Oreo balls for about 30 minutes, or until they are firm.

Melt the Chocolate

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate chips in 30-second increments, stirring in between until smooth.

Dip the Balls

Remove the Oreo balls from the freezer and dip each one into the melted white chocolate. Use a fork to remove them and let the excess chocolate drip off.

Decorate

If desired, add food coloring to the remaining melted chocolate and drizzle over the balls. Decorate with sprinkles or edible glitter while the chocolate is still wet.

Let Set

Allow the chocolate to set completely at room temperature or in the refrigerator before serving.

Enjoy your festive Easter Egg Oreo Balls!
