Description

Easy no-bake Oreo cake balls made with crushed Oreos and cream cheese, coated in white chocolate.


Ingredients

  • 24 Oreos
  • 4 oz softened cream cheese
  • 10 oz white candy melts (preferably Ghirardelli brand)
  • 2 tbsp heavy cream (if needed, to thin out the candy melts)


Instructions

  1. Process the 24 Oreos into fine crumbs using a food processor or crush them in a zip-top bag with a rolling pin until finely ground.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the Oreo crumbs with 4 oz of softened cream cheese. Mix until you achieve a cohesive, dough-like consistency.
  3. Roll the mixture into uniform balls, approximately 1-inch in diameter.
  4. Place the rolled balls onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  5. Chill the balls in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes until they become firm.
  6. Melt the 10 oz of white candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring thoroughly after each interval, ensuring smoothness.
  7. If the candy melts seem too thick, gradually add up to 2 tbsp of heavy cream, stirring well after each addition until smooth.
  8. Dip each chilled Oreo ball into the melted candy melts using a fork or toothpick, ensuring full coating. Allow excess coating to drip back into the bowl.
  9. Place the dipped cake ball back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet.
  10. If the candy melts thicken during dipping, re-melt in 15-second intervals while stirring.
  11. Once all cake balls are coated, place the baking sheet back into the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes to allow the coating to set completely.

Notes

For an extra fun twist, consider adding crushed peppermint or sprinkles to your melted candy coating before it hardens.
