Method
Preparation
- In a food processor, blend the Oreo cookies until they turn into fine crumbs. If you don’t have a food processor, place the cookies in a zip-top bag and crush them with a rolling pin.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the crushed Oreos and softened cream cheese. Use a spatula or your hands to blend the mixture until it forms a smooth, moldable dough.
- Use a tablespoon to scoop out portions of the dough, rolling them into balls about 1 inch in diameter. Place the formed cake balls onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Cover the baking sheet with plastic wrap and chill the cake balls in the freezer for at least 15-20 minutes.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips with the coconut oil (if using) in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.
- Remove the chilled cake balls from the freezer. Using a fork, dip each ball into the melted chocolate, allowing any excess chocolate to drip off. Place the coated balls back onto the parchment-lined sheet.
- While the chocolate is still wet, roll the balls in additional crushed Oreos or drizzle with more melted chocolate for an extra touch of flair.
- Allow the cake balls to set at room temperature or place them in the refrigerator for quicker firming.
- Once the chocolate has hardened, your Homemade Oreo Cake Balls are ready to be enjoyed!
Notes
Chilling is key for maintaining shape and easier coating. Experiment with different Oreo flavors. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks or freeze for longer storage.
