How to Make Oreo Cookie Balls

Bag of crushed Oreo cookies.

Crush up your Oreo cookies very fine, filling and all.

I know it doesn’t look like I crushed up the filling in here but I promise I did.

Sometimes I use a food processor for this step but if you don’t have one you will need to put your cookies in a sealable bag and hammer the heck out of them to make Oreo crumbs.

Cookie and cream cheese mixture.

You will then add your softened cream cheese to the crushed cookie crumbs.

I use my hands to mush it all together until you have a dough but you can use an electric mixer if you like.

Oreo balls ready for coating.

Once you have it mixed really well shape a spoonful into bite-sized balls.

Once you have the balls made, place your almond bark (or white chocolate chips) in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave at 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until melted and smooth. Take care not to let even the smallest drop of water get into your coating because it will cause it to seize up and won’t be good for much of anything.

Oreo Cookie Balls

Dip each Oreo ball into the melted almond bark until it is totally coated. I use a toothpick to dunk mine and pull them out and let any excess chocolate drip back into the bowl. Once you have each Oreo cookie ball dipped and they have completely set you will want to store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Mmmm, these don’t last long at all at my house so I have to make a TON! But one batch will make about 60-70 balls.

Storage

  • Store your Oreo cookie balls in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
  • You can also store an Oreo truffle batch in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 months. Thaw in the fridge before enjoying.

Recipe Notes

  • Despite the name, almond bark has no nuts in it and can be found near the chocolate chips. In a pinch, white chocolate chips may be substituted but the best bet is to buy cheaper milk or dark chocolate chips because they make a better melted chocolate coating for Oreo truffles and balls like this.
  • After you dip the balls in the almond bark, you can add a drizzle of milk chocolate on top or dip them in extra cookie crumbs or some sprinkles.
  • For Christmas Oreo balls, add some crushed peppermint candy cane pieces to your mixture, cover them with almond bark, and then dip them into some red and green sprinkles to make festive peppermint Oreo balls.
  • You can also use different Oreo flavors if you prefer, like peppermint or golden Oreos.

  1. I just got done making these and then checked my email and saw your recipe.. I had went online to check for different types of truffles…and the recipe came up as oreo truffles but they are exactly the same as yours. I also made red velvet truffles, carrot cake truffles and rocky road fudge…. this is mostly for gifts.. tooooo many calories to keep at my house..lol.

    Merry Christmas everyone!!

    1. Wanda, I am very intrigued by the carrot cake and red velvet truffles. Would you be willing to share your recipes, Please???

  2. I love these little gems. They are so easy and taste really great. I made them for an indoor baking event and sold out. I double dipped some, and then added a drizzle of dark chocolate to give them a different color contrast. I made some white with dark chocolate, and made some in dark chocolate and drizzled them with white chocolate. I also made them for my husbands Christmas Party last year.They are great. It helps though if you leave them in the fridge or freezer till they are somewhat firm, and it makes the dunking much easier.

  3. This is one of the most requested candy at my house. Unfortunately, it goes by a different name…Disaster Candy. The fiirst few I make look delicious, but the further I get into the dunking, the cookies have “gummed up” my bark and they start to come out speckled and ugly. Hence, the name Disaster Candy. It doesn’t matter though, the family eats them up like crazy.

    1. All to need do to eleminate the disaster is FREEZE them almost completely, then dunk them by using a tooth pick, they are much easier to handle if they are partially frozen, and do not get all gooey. They will all look picture perfect.

  4. Yeah!!! Just got back srom the grocery store with the ingredients to make a batch! Gonna sprinkle with Christmas sprinkles too. Love this recipe!!

  5. I made these delicious oreo balls last Christmas and my family absolutely loved them…..so I’ll be treating them to another batch at our family Christmas this year. I do the chocolate drizzle over them also…makes them look fancy. Enjoy your recipes so much. Thanks Christy and Merry Christmas to you and your family!
