Oreo Balls

Or as some of my coworkers renamed them - Badger Balls!! Such an easy recipe, but a HUGE hit!! I have been wanting to make these for awhile now and had the chance to bring desert for a girls dinner last week. Of course I knew this was when I would get the chance to play around with this recipe and see how it turned out. If I knew the response I was going to get, I would have made a ton more to share!! The recipe made probably 50 or so, depending on how big or small you made them. I only needed 6 at the most, 2 of each flavor chocolate, to take to my dinner. But it worked out perfect because we threw a shower for my friend and coworker on Thursday so I was able to bring some in for her too. And I gave some to Robby to take to work and we gave the final 6 to his mom, dad and grandpa. This easy recipe will be used again! It was kind of messy and took some time but was well worth it! Next time I will try to be a bit cleaner and nicer looking with the final product. This was a test run!








Recipe
  • 1 package regular size Oreo cookies, crushed - 8 crushed and put to the side, remaining oreos used for the balls
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 package white almond bark- I just used white and dark chocolate chips

Directions:

  1. Using a blender or hand held mixer, mix Oreos and cream cheese together. - It kept sticking to my blender/hand mixer so I just mixed it by hand. That took forever and hurt my arms but it got there eventually
  2. Roll into walnut size balls.
  3. Chill for an hour. - I didn't let it chill for an hour, maybe 20 minutes
  4. Melt approximately 3/4 package of white almond bark.
  5. Stick a toothpick in an Oreo ball and dip it in the melted white almond bark. - yeah I should have used a toothpick but I just used forks
  6. Allow to harden on wax paper.
  7. Takes about 15 min.
  8. while you are allowing them to harden, sprinkle with the oreo crumbs you set aside in the beginning
    Place in the fridge overnight and enjoy the next day!!
