Ingredients

For the Oreo Balls

1 package Oreo cookies (15.35 oz)
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1 cup creamy peanut butter
2 cups milk chocolate chips

Make sure to let the Oreo mixture chill before forming the balls for easier handling.

Instructions

Prepare the Oreo Mixture

In a food processor, crush the Oreo cookies into fine crumbs. Add the softened cream cheese and peanut butter, and blend until well combined.

Form the Balls

Using your hands, shape the mixture into 1-inch balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Chill the Balls

Refrigerate the balls for at least 30 minutes or until they are firm.

Coat in Chocolate

Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Dip each chilled ball into the melted chocolate, coating completely, and return them to the baking sheet.

Set and Serve

Let the chocolate coating set at room temperature or refrigerate for 10 minutes to speed up the process. Enjoy!

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Storage Tips

To keep your Reese's Oreo Balls fresh, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They can last for up to two weeks, allowing you to enjoy them over time. If you want to make them ahead of a special occasion, feel free to prepare them a few days in advance. Just ensure they are properly chilled before serving.

For longer storage, consider freezing the Oreo Balls. Place them in a single layer on a baking sheet until frozen solid, then transfer them to a freezer-safe container. They can be kept in the freezer for up to three months. When you're ready to enjoy them, simply thaw them in the refrigerator for a few hours.

Variations to Try

While the classic Reese's Oreo Balls are delightful as they are, don’t hesitate to experiment with flavors! You can add crushed nuts, such as peanuts or almonds, for an extra crunch. Alternatively, try using flavored Oreos, like mint or peanut butter, to give a new twist to the traditional recipe.

For a fun change, consider drizzling white chocolate over the chocolate-coated balls for a beautiful presentation. You can also roll them in crushed nuts, sprinkles, or coconut flakes for added texture and visual appeal. The possibilities are endless, so feel free to get creative!

Serving Suggestions

When it comes to serving, presentation is key! Arrange your Reese's Oreo Balls on a decorative platter or in cupcake liners for a festive touch. You can also pair them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or serve them alongside fresh fruit for a balanced treat.

These Oreo Balls make a great addition to dessert tables and candy buffets. They can also be packaged individually for party favors or included in gift baskets. No matter how you serve them, they are sure to be the star of the show!
