Oreo Balls


Oreo Balls
(approx. 30)

 

Ingredients:
 
1 (14.3 oz.) package Regular Oreo Cookies
1 (8 oz.) package Cream Cheese, room temperature
1 (oz.) package White Bark, melted

Directions:

Crush package of Oreo cookies and place in a large mixing bowl.  Mix in the cream cheese and chill for one to two hours (or overnight).  Now form into balls using a #50 scoop.  Once removed from scoop, press tightly with hands into balls with a flat bottom.  Drop balls one at a time into the melted white bark using two forks.  Make sure to coat completely and then remove.  Do this by placing a fork under the flat side of ball and lifting out of the melted bark.  Carefully bang the fork handle against rim of pan to remove excess bark.  Carefully place each ball on wax paper to cool in refrigerator.  Once cooled, place cooled balls in appropriate containers and store in refrigerator.  They can be frozen until needed too.

Note:               To melt the bark, use one of two methods.  Use a double-boiler with water in bottom section and bark in top section.  Bring water to a boil and have lid on top section.  Check about every 5 minutes and try stirring.  Bark will keep shape until you stir.  Once it is completely smooth, start dipping balls into the bark.  You can also use the microwave.  Place pieces in a microwavable dish and run on high in 15 second segments.  Start trying to stir after the 3rd time.  Again, stir until smooth and start dipping.

Note:               You could use chocolate bark or both to give you a different look.  Also try adding a little food color of choice to the white bark for a variety of colors.
