Description

These Easter Egg Oreo Cookie Balls are a delightful no-bake treat combining crushed Oreo cookies and creamy cream cheese, coated in smooth white chocolate and pastel candy melts for a festive, colorful finish. Perfectly sized for bite-sized enjoyment, these cookie balls make a fun and easy dessert for spring celebrations.


Ingredients

Scale

Cookie Ball Mixture

  • 1 package Oreo cookies (approximately 36 cookies)
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened

Coating

  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • 1 cup pastel candy melts


Instructions

  1. Crush the Oreos: Start by placing the entire package of Oreo cookies into a large food processor. Pulse until finely crushed into uniform crumbs.
  2. Mix with cream cheese: Transfer the cookie crumbs to a large mixing bowl. Add the softened cream cheese and blend together using a hand mixer or spoon until smooth and fully combined.
  3. Form cookie balls: Use your hands to roll small portions of the mixture into 1-inch balls, ensuring they are compact.
  4. Chill the balls: Arrange the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes until firm.
  5. Melt white chocolate chips: Place white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 20-second intervals, stirring after each, until fully melted and smooth.
  6. Melt pastel candy melts: In a separate microwave-safe bowl, melt the pastel candy melts using the same 20-second interval method, stirring until smooth.
  7. Dip in white chocolate: Once the Oreo balls are firm, dip each into the melted white chocolate to fully coat. Return them to the parchment-lined baking sheet.
  8. Dip in candy melts: Next, dip the white chocolate-coated balls into the pastel candy melts for a colorful finish. Place back onto the parchment paper.
  9. Finish coating all balls: Repeat the dipping process until all Oreo balls have double coatings.
  10. Set the coating: Allow the coated balls to set at room temperature for about 10-15 minutes until the coatings harden.
  11. Serve and enjoy: Your festive Easter Egg Oreo Cookie Balls are now ready to enjoy as a creamy, crunchy dessert treat.

Notes

  • Ensure cream cheese is fully softened for an easy mix and smooth texture.
  • Do not skip chilling the balls before dipping to help them hold their shape.
  • If the chocolate or candy melts thicken, reheat briefly in the microwave to maintain a smooth consistency.
  • Use parchment paper to prevent sticking and ease transfer of coated balls.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
