Description
Indulgent no-bake treats made with crushed Oreos, cream cheese, and dark chocolate coating. Perfect for parties, holidays, or satisfying chocolate cravings!
Ingredients
For the Oreo Centers:
- 28 regular Oreos (about 2 small packets)
- 150 grams (⅔ cup) cream cheese, room temp, firm block type
For the Chocolate Coating:
- 340 grams (2 cups) dark chocolate melts
- 56 grams (⅓ cup) white chocolate melts (totally optional for decorating)
Instructions
Line a tray with parchment paper – make sure it fits in your freezer because that’s where these babies are headed later.
Toss those Oreos in your food processor and pulse until they’re fine crumbs. Don’t stress if a few bigger pieces sneak through – texture is good!
Dump the Oreo crumbs in a bowl with your room temp cream cheese. Mix with a hand mixer until combined, but don’t go crazy – overmixing makes everything too soft.
Scoop heaping tablespoons of mixture and roll between your palms into balls. You should get about 12 good-sized ones. Plop them on your parchment-lined tray.
Stick that tray in the freezer for 15 minutes. This step is key – it makes coating them way easier.
While they’re chilling, melt your dark chocolate in 20-second bursts in the microwave, stirring between each one until smooth.
Use two forks to roll each frozen ball in chocolate, letting excess drip off. Put them back on the tray.
If you want to get fancy, drizzle white chocolate or sprinkle crushed Oreos while the coating’s still wet.
Let them sit until the chocolate hardens completely. Pop them back in the fridge if you’re impatient like me!
Notes
- Same-size trick: Use a small cookie scoop so all your balls look professional
- Smooth chocolate hack: Drop of coconut oil in your melted chocolate = glossy perfection
- Clean hands: Keep a bowl of cool water nearby and dip your fingertips between rolling
- Cool kitchen rule: Warm hands + warm room = sticky disaster, so work somewhere cool if possible
