What are Oreo balls made of?
Step 1: Add 24 Oreo cookies to a food processor and pulse for about 30 seconds, or until the mixture becomes a fine cookie crumb.
Step 2: Add the cubed cream cheese to the food processor and pulse for 30 seconds, or until the mixture has a cookie dough consistency.
Step 3: Using a cookie scoop, make balls with the Oreo mixture. If you want to add an extra crunchy texture to the center of your balls, add one Hershey’s Cookies ‘N’ Creme Drop/Bite/Kiss to the center of the ball. Grab a ball of Oreo dough and press in the center to make a hole in the middle. Then add the Hershey’s Cookies ‘N’ Creme chocolate and manually cover it with the Oreo dough using your hands.
Step 4: Align the Oreo balls on a baking sheet and place them in the refrigerator for at least one hour, or place them in the freezer for 25 minutes.
Step 5: Melt your chocolate according to the directions on the package. Usually, a safe way to melt chocolate is to microwave chocolate chips for 10-15 seconds each time until the chocolate is completely melted. You’ll need to stir with a spatula each time to help the chocolate melt and reduce lumps.
Step 6: When the chocolate has a creamy consistency, dip the Oreo balls and use a fork to rotate the ball and cover all the surfaces with white chocolate. Then, allow the gravity to drain the excess of chocolate and place each ball on the baking sheet again. Make sure to align the Oreo balls, separated from each other.
Step 7: Once you put the Oreo ball on the tray, place a mini Oreo cookie on top of the Oreo balls while the chocolate is still melted. Repeat this process for one each of the balls. This particular step should be done as fast as possible because the chocolate that comes in contact with the cold Oreo ball will harden fast, and you need the chocolate melted enough to add the mini Oreo on the surface.
Step 8: Once again, put the Oreo balls in the refrigerator for one hour at least before serving. Enjoy!
