Can you guess which cookie is the most popular in the whole world? Let us give you a hint… begins and ends with the letter “O”. You are right! OREO.

Oreo cookies are definitely a guilty pleasure for many of us. Who can resist two crunchy chocolate cookies with a layer of vanilla frosting in the middle? The mix is just unbelievably delicious. Some people prefer to eat them by biting only the crunchy chocolate part, while others dunk their Oreos in cold milk and eat them whole. Others twist the two halves apart and lick the filling. No matter how you eat them, there’s no wrong way to enjoy an Oreo! That’s why we’re sharing this recipe for Oreo Cookie Balls, the most delicious and easy dessert with just three ingredients. Your next party will be a huge success when you serve these sweet treats!

These oreo cookie balls are super simple to make, and for a final touch of decadence, they are dipped in milk or dark chocolate.  They taste just like the classic cookies and cream and you get a double chocolate whammy too!

Chocolate Oreo ball cookies ingredients

  • 30 Oreos(plus 4 more, crushed for topping, if desired)
  • 1 (8 oz) package of cream cheese, softened to room temperature
  • 16 oz of milk or dark chocolate

Chocolate Oreo ball cookies recipe

  • Line a baking sheet with wax paper or parchment paper.
  • Place 30 Oreos in a food processor and pulse until they are finely ground.
  • Pour the cookie crumbs in a bowl.
  • Add the cream cheese to the bowl, then mix it with a spatula until it’s well combined.
  • Scoop about 1 tablespoon of the mixture, and roll it into a ball about 1 inch in diameter. Arrange the balls on the prepared cookie sheet.
  • Place the cookie sheet in the freezer for 10-15 minutes. In the meantime, crush the remaining 4 Oreos and melt the chocolate in your microwave or a double-boiler (melting details).
  • Remove the balls from the freezer and dip them one at a time in the melted, tempered chocolate. Use a chocolate dipping fork if you have one, otherwise, a regular fork will do.  You can also use a spoon to pour chocolate over the top of each ball Allow excess chocolate to run off before transferring them back to the cookie sheet.
  • If you want to top them with crushed Oreos, make sure to do that before the chocolate has a chance to set.
  • Once you have finished dipping all the Oreo balls, t, it’s time to dive in and enjoy.
  • Store any leftovers (seriously?!?) in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
