Description

Sweet snowball Oreo cookie balls bring creamy delight with crushed Oreo cookies, cream cheese, and white chocolate coating. Rolled into perfect spheres and dusted with powdered sugar, these treats offer irresistible indulgence you’ll crave again and again.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients:

  • 36 OREO Cookies, finely crushed
  • 1 brick (8 ounces/226 grams) cream cheese, softened

Supporting Sweet Ingredients:

  • ½ cup (120 milliliters/4 fluid ounces) powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Line a spacious rimmed tray with wax paper, creating a smooth foundation for your delectable treats.
  2. Thoroughly pulverize the OREO cookies into fine, uniform crumbs using a food processor or rolling pin.
  3. Combine softened cream cheese with the pulverized cookie crumbs in a mixing bowl, blending until the mixture achieves a cohesive, smooth consistency.
  4. Gently form the mixture into compact, uniform spheres approximately one inch in diameter, ensuring each ball is tightly compressed.
  5. Roll each cookie sphere generously in powdered sugar, rotating carefully to achieve an even, delicate coating that resembles a pristine winter landscape.
  6. Arrange the sugar-dusted spheres in a single layer on the prepared wax paper-covered tray, maintaining adequate spacing between each morsel.
  7. Transfer the tray to the refrigerator and allow the cookie balls to chill and solidify for a minimum of one hour, which will enhance their texture and structural integrity.
  8. Keep the snowball OREO cookie balls refrigerated until the moment of serving to maintain their optimal consistency and flavor.

Notes

  • Crush OREO cookies finely using a food processor or placing them in a sealed bag and rolling with a rolling pin for the smoothest texture.
  • Use room temperature cream cheese to ensure easy mixing and prevent lumpy cookie balls.
  • Chill the mixture for 15-20 minutes before shaping to make rolling easier and prevent sticky hands.
  • Roll balls quickly and gently to maintain a uniform size and prevent cracking.
  • Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week for maximum freshness.
  • Can be frozen for up to 3 months, making them a perfect make-ahead dessert for parties or unexpected guests.
