Ingredients:

1 package (14.3 oz) Oreo cookies
8 oz cream cheese, softened
White chocolate or candy melts in various colors
Sprinkles or decorative sugar for embellishment

Instructions:

Crush the Oreos: Place the Oreo cookies in a food processor and pulse until finely ground. If you don’t have a food processor, you can place the cookies in a ziplock bag and crush them with a rolling pin.
Mix with Cream Cheese: In a large bowl, combine the crushed Oreos with the softened cream cheese. Mix until well combined and the mixture is uniform.
Shape the Eggs: Take small portions of the mixture and shape them into egg-like ovals. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. If the mixture is too soft to handle, you can chill it in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to firm up.
Freeze: Place the shaped Oreo balls in the freezer for about 10-15 minutes to harden. This will make them easier to dip into the chocolate or candy melts.
Melt the Chocolate/Candy Melts: Melt the white chocolate or candy melts according to the package instructions. You can use different colors to make your Easter eggs vibrant and festive.
Dip the Oreo Eggs: Using a fork or a dipping tool, dip each Oreo egg into the melted chocolate or candy melts, ensuring it’s completely coated. Gently tap off any excess coating.
Decorate: Before the coating sets, decorate your Easter egg Oreo balls with sprinkles, decorative sugar, or any other festive decorations you like.
Set: Place the decorated Oreo balls back on the parchment paper and allow the coating to set completely. You can speed up this process by placing them in the refrigerator.
Serve and Enjoy: Once set, your Easter Egg Oreo Balls are ready to be enjoyed! Serve them as part of your Easter celebration or package them up for a sweet gift.
