These 3 ingredient Christmas Oreo Cookie Balls are an easy recipe for novice cookie ball makers too AND they taste delicious!

I’ve always been intimidated with cake pops and cookie balls.

I took my shot at making cake pops once and the gooey, crumbling mess I ended with made me resolve not to go anywhere near them again.

But when I was encouraged to take a peek at how an Oreo Cookie Ball was made, I guess I caved.

Anything with Oreo in it’s name will make me stop and take notice.

And when I read that I could make them easily with 3 ingredients and nothing more, I was intrigued.

So armed (and drooling) with a pack of Duo Oreos, I decided to give it a shot with the kids away at school and Hubs at work.

(I didn’t want them to see me melt down if the little confidence I had in making a cookie ball that looked like it was supposed to actually crumbled.).

How to make 3 ingredient Christmas Oreo Cookie Balls

I decided to take each stage patiently even if it meant I was churning out 3 cookie balls in ten minutes and as each cookie ball was rolled, dipped and sprinkled, I realized I just might end up with an actual Oreo Cookie Ball.

The result was not perfect but I was thrilled, over the moon and ecstatic!!

I. Actually. Succeeded. In. Making. Oreo. Cookie. Balls.

3 ingredient Christmas Oreo Cookie Balls {An Easy #OreoCookieBalls Recipe}
Whenever you find the cream cheese and Oreos mixture crumbling, pop the same back into the freezer for a few minutes and then shape the balls once the mixture is chilled and ready to mold again.
Ingredients
  • 1 package 8 oz. brick cream cheese, softened
  • 36 OREO Cookies finely crushed (about 3 cups)- I used the Oreo Duo Cookies
  • 4 pkg. 4 oz. each semi-sweet baking chocolate, melted
Instructions
  1. Mix the cream cheese and cookie crumbs until blended.
  2. Shape the mixture into 48 (1-inch) balls.
  3. Freeze the cookie balls for 10-15 mins.
  4. Dip the balls in melted chocolate and place in a single layer on a waxed, paper-lined pan.
  5. Now get creative and decorate your cookie ball any way you want.
  6. Refrigerate the finished balls for about 1 hour or until firm.
