Oreo Balls

For my Grandma's birthday party, my cousin brought these AMAZING oreo balls. She originally got the recipe from here. They are SOOOO good! So, Saturday I decided to try making them. They were SO easy and good. Sorry didn't get a picture though (the website has them if you want to see the end product).


1 package oreo cookies (divided… use cookie including the cream center)
1 8oz. package cream cheese (softened)
white chocolate bark

Finely crush 7 cookies in a food processor or place them in a ziploc bag and crush into a fine consistency. Reserve for later. Crush remaining cookies and stir in softened cream cheese. Use the back of a large spoon to help mash the two together (I used my hands). Roll the mixture into 1" balls and place on wax paper covered cookie sheet. Put in freezer for about 10 minutes. Melt chocolate as directed on the package and then dip balls into chocolate, tap off extra and set aside on wax paper covered cookie sheet to dry. You can sprinkle the tops with the 7 crushed cookies for decoration. Once dry, refrigerate and enjoy!

Makes about 36 truffles.

Notes: They are also good dipped in regular milk chocolate bark (I dipped mine in milk chocolate). And for an extra twist, use the mint oreo sandwich cookies. (I'm thinking about trying Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies)......MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!
