Equipment
- Food Processor optional
- Parchment Paper
- Baking Sheet
- Microwave safe bowl
- 3 Small Bowls
Ingredients
- 36 golden oreos
- 8 ounce cream cheese softened
- green, purple, orange food coloring
- 12 ounce black melting chocolate
- Halloween sprinkles
Instructions
- Add the Golden Oreos to the bowl of a food processor and pulse until the Oreos are a fine crumb.
- Add the cookie crumbs to a large bowl and use an electric mixer to combine the Oreos and cream cheese. Mix until thoroughly combined.
- Separate the cookie mixture into 3 bowls.
- Add food coloring to each of the bowls. Dye one neon green, one bowl purple and one bowl orange. Stir until the colors are evenly distributed in each bowl.
- Take a little of each colored cookie mixture and roll into tablespoon size balls.
- Set aside on a parchment lined tray and chill in the freezer for 30 minutes, or in the refrigerator for at least an hour.
- Meanwhile melt your candy melts in a microwave safe dish in 30 second intervals until smooth and melted.
- Using 2 forks, carefully dip each chilled cookie ball in the melting chocolate and set back on the parchment lined tray.
- Immediately top with Halloween sprinkles, or any other decorations you'd like for the Oreo balls.
Notes
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week
- Can be made ahead and frozen (before decorating) for up to 2 months — thaw in fridge before dipping in chocolate
- Avoid stacking the balls unless using parchment between layers to prevent smudging
