GoddessofRandomThoughts good luck we did our first batch in two rounds. They held up well in the fridge overnight and in the oven (it was off but had others things on the counter tops) most of the day when we remembered to take them out of the fridge. We ended up with about 50 balls might do our next batch a little smaller to get more in one batch. We also found that we liked them better double dipped in the white chocolate as the first dipping was a very thin coating. Didn't know if it was supposed to be like that so we double dipped them.

I am so glad everyone has enjoyed making the Oreo Balls! My DD and I made 2 batches last night and they are delicious as always .

I did notice that as the white chocolate cooled a bit (but still dippable) they clung to the balls better and made a prettier candy. So on our 2nd batch, we let the white chocolate sit on the counter for about 5 min - stirring to cool - and then dipped - worked beautifully!

Happy Holidays!

this may sound dumb, but do you crush the oreo's with the white stuff in them? since that is the only way they come right? i don't eat oreo's cuz i really don't like them, but DH does so i figured i'd give this a shot..

Yes. Just toss them in the food processer, put them into a bag and crush them with a rolling pin.

Also a blender might work too. You need the creamy part from the cookies and the cream cheese to make just the right consistency. If you try one, you might just become an Oreo convert !

Thank you so much for this!

I've made two batches of the vanilla ones now I have a request for chocolate. My hands are going to have oreo remains on them for months!

These are so good!

Hope all you people are telling the truth.
I bought all the ingredients today......4 pkgs of Oreos, etc.
On your testimony, I decided to make them for give-aways.....So I'll end up with a BIG dud if they flop (not really, I'll try just one first
But really, thanks. They do sound gooooooooood.

No teasing...these things are awesome! This is my second batch this year already, and I have the makings for one more. yum! I tried some green and red sprinkles on top this time, since they're for giving away.
