Description
Simple no-bake cookie balls featuring crushed Oreos, cream cheese, peppermint, and raspberry flavor, coated in chocolate.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package (14.3 oz) Oreo cookies
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 teaspoon peppermint extract
- 1/4 cup raspberry jam or preserves
- 12 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional, for smoother melting)
- Crushed candy canes, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Place the Oreo cookies in a food processor and process until fine crumbs form.
- In a medium bowl, combine the Oreo crumbs, softened cream cheese, peppermint extract, and raspberry jam. Mix until thoroughly combined and a dough forms.
- Roll the mixture into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Chill the cookie balls in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- Melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil (if using) in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
- Dip each chilled cookie ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Return the coated balls to the parchment-lined sheet.
- If using, immediately sprinkle crushed candy canes over the wet chocolate coating.
- Refrigerate the finished cookie balls for at least 1 hour, or until the chocolate is set.
Notes
- If you do not have a food processor, place Oreos in a sturdy plastic bag and crush them with a rolling pin.
- For easier dipping, insert a toothpick into each ball before coating.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
