In the busyness of the holiday season, I need simplicity in my life. I need a delicious treat to take to a Christmas party that doesn’t take much time. I consider it a major win if it is something that my kids can help with and have a great time too! May I introduce you to the hands-down winner of this contest, easy three ingredient Oreo Balls!
Now, one word of disclaimer, if you follow me primarily for cleaner recipes, I’m sorry to disappoint you, but this won’t be one of them. The holidays and parties are still times when I struggle to be able to keep things cleaner. Maybe, as I get further along in my journey, I will be able to figure out some cleaner alternatives for some of my go-to treats, but for now, I’m just being transparent with you, my readers!
Without further ado, let’s get into how to make these fun, delicious treats! They are so good that they are sure to be completely devoured! I pretty much guarantee you come home with an empty plate!
Tools for Making Oreo Balls
- cookie sheet
- silicone mat
- cookie scoop
- Ninja chopper
- 2 Large bowls
- Spoon
- Fork
- Stand or Hand Mixer
- Spatula
- Paring Knife
Ingredients List
- Family Size Pack of Oreos
- 8 oz. Cream Cheese (softened)
- Vanilla Almond Bark
Instructions for Making Oreo Balls
- First, use your Ninja Chopper to finely crush the entire pack of Oreos.
- Next, add the softened cream cheese to the mixing bowl.
- Dump in the Oreos
- Stir on medium-high speed until well combined.
- Using the cookie scoop, firmly roll into approximately one-inch balls.
- Place them on cookie sheet lined with silicone mat.
- Put them in the freezer for 15 minutes or so to ensure they are firm.
- Melt the Almond Bark according to package directions.
- Using a spoon and fork for balance, dip each ball into the chocolate and place back onto the cookie sheet.
- If you are adding sprinkles, you want to do so quickly, because the chocolate hardens very fast.
Quick Tip
If you have small kiddos helping you make these treats, or honestly, any other treat that you are putting sprinkles on, pre-dispense the sprinkles into a muffin tin. This allows the kids to easily access them without them pouring half the container on one treat!
- Once you have dipped all Oreo balls and the chocolate is hardened, you can use a sharp paring knife to cut off any crazy drips around the base and make them a little more uniform.
- Plate them up and enjoy!
Enjoy the Simple Things!
Often, we get caught up in the more complicated aspects and traditions, but sometimes, whether by choice or by necessity, we need to simplify our Christmas season. These Oreo balls are the perfect way to do so! Get your kids in the kitchen with you, and regardless of the simplicity, memories are made!
Have a wonderful, simple Christmas Season!
