Ingredients

  • Family-sized pack of Oreos 36 cookies
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 4 oz pink candy melts
  • 4 oz blue candy melts
  • 4 oz green candy melts
  • ¼ cup festive sprinkles

Instructions

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a cookie sheet with wax paper.
  • Place Oreos in a stand mixer with paddle attachment.
  • Mix at low speed until all of the Oreos are crushed into a fine Oreo crumble.
  • Add softened cream cheese to the mixing bowl.
  • Mix on medium speed until a soft dough forms.
  • Cover the dough in plastic wrap and place in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
  • Remove the dough from the fridge and roll into tablespoon-sized balls.
  • Place the balls in the freezer for 1 hour to chill.
  • Melt the chocolate wafers in separate microwave-safe bowls. Heat in 15-30 second intervals, checking and stirring each time so that the chocolate doesn't burn.
  • Remove the cake balls from the freezer and dip them in the melted chocolate.
  • Place excess chocolate in a freezer bag, snip off the tip, and drizzle different colored chocolate over the balls. Immediately top with festive sprinkles.
  • Place the chocolate balls in the fridge and allow them to harden completely before serving.

Notes

  • Instead of a stand mixer, a food processor also works well for crushing the cookies into a fine crumb.
  • A small cookie scoop can help to get uniform-sized balls.
  • Use a fork for dipping to help the excess chocolate drip from each ball.
  • Use Wilton candy melts for best results — the wafer chocolate melts the best. Add one teaspoon of coconut oil to other melted chocolate chips to help them melt and pour better.
  • Lay the chocolate-covered treat on a parchment-lined baking sheet for easy moving and transporting before the chocolate has hardened.
  • Place the chocolate in the fridge or freezer to completely cool before serving.
