No-Bake Oreo Balls Recipe

Introduction

No Bake Oreo Balls are a simple, delicious treat perfect for any occasion. With just a few ingredients and no oven required, these chocolate-covered delights are crowd-pleasers that come together quickly and easily.

Ingredients

• 40 Oreo cookies
• 8 oz cream cheese (at room temperature)
• 1 1/2 cups chocolate melting wafers (or candy coating)
• 1 1/2 cups white chocolate melting wafers (or candy coating)

Instructions

1. Step 1: Cover a cookie sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
2. Step 2: Place Oreo cookies in a food processor. Pulse until they become fine crumbs.
3. Step 3: In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese with a hand mixer until smooth, about 1 minute.
4. Step 4: Add the Oreo crumbs to the cream cheese and mix until well combined.
5. Step 5: Roll the mixture into small balls and place them on the prepared cookie sheet.
6. Step 6: Freeze the balls for 15–30 minutes to firm up.
7. Step 7: Melt the chocolate wafers and white chocolate wafers separately according to package instructions.
8. Step 8: Remove the balls from the freezer. Using forks, dip each ball into the melted chocolate, letting excess drip off. Dip half in regular chocolate and half in white chocolate.
9. Step 9: Return the dipped balls to the cookie sheet. Drizzle with additional chocolate and sprinkle crushed Oreos on top if desired.
10. Step 10: Chill the balls for at least 1 hour before serving.

Tips & Variations

• For extra crunch, add chopped nuts into the Oreo and cream cheese mixture before rolling the balls.
• Use flavored cream cheese such as chocolate or strawberry for a different twist.
• If you don’t have a food processor, place Oreos in a plastic bag and crush with a rolling pin until finely ground.
• Try drizzling with contrasting chocolate colors for an elegant look.

Storage

Store Oreo balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. For longer storage, freeze them for up to 2 months. Thaw in the fridge before serving. If needed, let them sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes for the best flavor and texture.

How to Serve

FAQs

Can I use a different type of cookie instead of Oreos?

Yes, you can substitute Oreos with any chocolate sandwich cookie, but the classic Oreo flavor pairs best with the cream cheese and chocolate coating.

Do I have to use cream cheese?

Cream cheese helps bind the cookie crumbs and adds creaminess. Using less or a substitute may affect texture, so sticking with cream cheese is recommended for best results.

Instructions

1. Prep: Cover a cookie sheet with parchment paper and set aside to prepare a surface for the Oreo balls.
2. Crumbs: Place Oreo cookies in a food processor and pulse until they become fine crumbs to create the base mixture.
3. Whisk: In a large bowl, use a hand mixer to beat the cream cheese until smooth, approximately 1 minute, ensuring the mixture is creamy and lump-free.
4. Mix: Add the Oreo cookie crumbs to the cream cheese and mix thoroughly until well combined, forming a uniform dough-like mixture.
5. Roll: Roll the mixture into small, bite-sized balls and place them onto the prepared cookie sheet, spacing them evenly.
6. Freeze: Freeze the Oreo balls for 15 to 30 minutes to help them firm up and hold their shape for dipping.
7. Melt: Place the chocolate melting wafers in one microwave-safe bowl and the white chocolate wafers in another. Melt both according to the packaging instructions, heating in short intervals and stirring frequently to prevent burning.
8. Dip: Remove the Oreo balls from the freezer. Using forks, dip each ball into the melted chocolate, letting excess drip off. Dip half the balls in regular chocolate, the other half in white chocolate. Place them back on the cookie sheet, drizzle with additional chocolate, and sprinkle crushed Oreos on top for extra texture and decoration.
9. Chill: Chill the dipped Oreo balls in the refrigerator for at least one hour to allow the coating to set before serving.

Notes

• Ensure cream cheese is at room temperature for easier mixing and smooth texture.
• Use parchment paper on the cookie sheet to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
• You can substitute chocolate melting wafers with high-quality chocolate chips if desired, but melting can be more delicate.
• Store the Oreo balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
• For added flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture.
