Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package Oreos
- 1 block (8 oz / 226 g) cream cheese
- 2 cups (473 ml) white chocolate
- Candy eyes
- Optional: Sprinkles
- Optional: Food coloring
Instructions
- Pulverize Oreo cookies into ultrafine powder using a food processor, ensuring no large chunks remain.
- Blend the cookie powder with softened cream cheese, mixing thoroughly until a uniform, cohesive mixture forms.
- Shape the mixture into uniform, bite-sized spheres, arranging them on a parchment-lined tray.
- Rapidly chill the spheres in the freezer for approximately 10 minutes to firm their structure.
- Gently melt white chocolate in a microwave-safe container, stirring at 30-second intervals to prevent scorching.
- Carefully immerse each chilled sphere into the melted white chocolate, ensuring complete and even coverage.
- Utilize a fork to artfully drape and zigzag additional white chocolate across the balls, mimicking mummy-like bandage patterns.
- While chocolate remains liquid, delicately position candy eyes onto each sphere to create whimsical facial expressions.
- Allow the chocolate coating to solidify completely at room temperature, approximately 15-20 minutes, until firm and glossy.
Notes
- Crumble Oreos thoroughly for a smoother, more consistent texture that helps bind ingredients perfectly.
- Chill mixture before rolling to prevent sticky hands and ensure uniform ball sizes.
- Use room temperature cream cheese for easier mixing and smoother consistency.
- Melt white chocolate in short intervals to prevent burning and maintain silky texture.
