The title of this post says it all. I’m not sure there’s anything more I can add except. Wow and Yum. These are deadly. Only make them when you’re entertaining or you’ll eat the whole batch yourself. You’ve been warned!!
1 Box Oreo Cookies (Ground finely in a Blender or Food Processor)
1/2 Block (4oz.) Philly Cream Cheese (Ya, that’s right.)
Blend the above until smooth – the whole thing should stick together in a big ball.
Make little bite-sized balls. Freeze until you have time to chocolate-dip, or continue to that step if you’re ready now.
I used white baker’s chocolate (about 4 full squares melted does half a batch since we did half white with chocolate chip drizzle and half chocolate chip with white drizzle) and 1 to 1 1/2C of chocolate chips. If you were doing all white chocolate base, I’d use the whole box of baker’s chocolate. Melt chocolate in two double-boilers (or using your preferred chocolate-melting method). You can add a bit of shortening or even some veg. oil to make the chocolate a bit more smooth and shiny and easier to work with.
Use a spoon to roll the balls around in the chocolate and replace onto a parchment paper-lined tray. Drizzle with the opposite coloured chocolate. As you can see, I by no means took my time and made anything look “fancy” – especially because I had a 3 year old helping me! We made a huge mess, splattered each other with chocolate and they still taste yummy!! Freeze or refrigerate until you’re ready to serve.
Yum. Thank you Chef In Training for a super duper yummy and easy recipe!
I made these at Christmas with lots of varieties. Peanut butter cookies, fudge -o’s. Yeah, we ate them all before Christmas dinner. They also freeze really well and are sooooo good right out of the freezer
Now I’ll have to explore the cookie aisle for ideas! I try to avoid the “inner aisles” as much as possible when I’m shopping … this is NOT good! LOL
Can’t wait to try these. I am going to make these for my son’s kindergarten graduation on Tuesday!
They sounds so YUM!
They’re SO easy and SO yummy Colleen! We brought them to our church picnic today and they and the cookie dough ones were gobbled up in no-time!
Not one left to bring home …. and there was so much food to choose from! They are so easy and look so nice. This is definitely a keeper recipe. When making it, I did add a little extra cream cheese – to make it ‘cheesier,’ but that left them a little soft, so I added a little bit of icing sugar.
Aweseome Colleen! So glad they were such a hit! It’s been recommended to me to also try other cream-filled cookies too – fudgeeos, peanut butter, maple … the options are really endless and it’s such a simple recipe you can tweak as you go! If you try any others, let us know and we can post them to share!!
