Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 8 ounces cream cheese (package, softened)
  • 19.1 ounces Oreo cookies (package)

Coating and Decoration

  • White almond bark
  • Candy melts (colored)
  • Easter sprinkles


Instructions

  1. Crush Cookies: In a food processor, finely crush the Oreo cookies until they reach a crumb consistency suitable for mixing.
  2. Mix with Cream Cheese: Place the crushed cookie crumbs and softened cream cheese into a large mixing bowl and blend together using a hand mixer until the mixture is well combined and smooth.
  3. Form Egg Shapes: Using a 1 ½ tablespoon scoop, portion the cookie mixture into balls, then gently shape each one into an egg shape by hand.
  4. Freeze Shapes: Place the shaped egg balls onto a parchment paper-lined sheet pan and freeze for 30 minutes to firm up and hold their shape for coating.
  5. Melt Chocolate: Meanwhile, melt your coating chocolate. Heat the white almond bark or candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second increments, stirring until completely melted and smooth.
  6. Coat Oreo Eggs: Using two forks, dip each egg-shaped ball into the melted chocolate, gently shaking off any excess coating to ensure an even layer.
  7. Decorate: Place the coated eggs onto parchment paper and immediately sprinkle them with Easter sprinkles to decorate before the coating sets.
  8. Repeat: Repeat the dipping and decorating process with all the Oreo egg balls until finished.
  9. Serve: Serve the Easter Egg Oreo Balls fresh for the best texture and flavor.
  10. Store Leftovers: Refrigerate any leftovers to keep them firm and fresh.

Notes

  • Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature for easier mixing.
  • If you don’t have a food processor, place Oreo cookies in a sealed plastic bag and crush with a rolling pin.
  • Freezing the shaped balls helps them hold their form when dipping in melted chocolate.
  • Use colored candy melts to add festive colors matching your Easter theme.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
