Ingredients

  • Family sized pack of oreos 36 cookies
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 12 oz green chocolate melts
  • 2 Tbsp green sprinkles
  • 1 tsp red candy hearts

Instructions

  • 1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • 2. Place oreos in a stand mixer with paddle attachment.
  • 3. Mix at low speed until all of the oreos are crushed into a fine oreo crumble. Tip: a food processor can be used for this step too.
  • 4. Add softened cream cheese to the mixing bowl.
  • 5. Mix on medium speed until a soft dough forms.
  • 6. Cover the dough in plastic wrap and place in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
  • 7. Remove the dough from the fridge and roll into tablespoon sized balls. Tip: a small cookie scoop can help to get uniform sized balls.
  • 8. Place the balls in the freezer for 1 hour to chill.
  • 9. Melt the chocolate wafers in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 15 to 30 second intervals, checking and stirring each time so that the chocolate doesn't burn.
    10. Remove the cake balls from the freezer and dip them in the melted green chocolate. Tip: use a fork for dipping to help the excess chocolate drip from each ball.
  • 11. Place cake balls on the prepared baking sheet and immediately top the melted candy coating with sprinkles and a red heart.
  • 12. Place the chocolate balls in the fridge and allow them to harden completely before serving.
