Ingredients
  

  • 36 Oreo cookies
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened to room temperature
  • 10 oz chocolate melting wafers red, white, and blue (10 oz total between all 3 colors)
  • sprinkles and jimmies patriotic

Instructions
 

  • Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. 
  • Place the Oreo cookies in a food processor and pulse until finely crushed into crumbs. 
  • Transfer the crumbs to a large bowl, and add cream cheese. Using an electric hand mixer, mix until fully combined. 
  • Using a cookie scoop, scoop the mixture, and roll into about 1 inch balls using clean hands. If the dough begins to stick to your hands, you’ll need to wash them occasionally.
  • Place balls on the prepared baking sheet and freeze for at least 20 minutes.
  • Right before you're ready to pull out your balls, melt red, white and blue candy melts in separate microwave-safe bowls. Start out with 30 seconds per bowl, stir, and then melt at 20-second increments until melted. 
  • Using a fork, dip each ball into the melted chocolate color of your choice, gently tapping off the excess. Place the dipped balls on the parchment paper to harden.
  • After all the balls are dipped and hardened (about 10-15 minutes), use the remaining chocolate to drizzle/decorate as desired. Top with festive sprinkles and jimmies, and serve.

Notes

Storage-

Store in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 10 days.
To Freeze- after dipping (before adding sprinkles), place in a single layer until solid, then transfer to an airtight container. Thaw in the fridge and decorate just before serving.
