Instructions
Preparation
- Crush the Oreo cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or rolling pin.

- Roll the mixture into small balls and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Chill the balls in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to firm up.
Coating
- Melt the green candy melts according to the package instructions.
- Dip each chilled Oreo ball into the melted candy, ensuring to allow any excess candy to drip off.
- Place the coated balls back onto the baking sheet. Add sprinkles if desired for added festivity!
- Allow the chocolate coating to set before serving.
Notes
For a smoother finish, ensure your cream cheese is at room temperature before mixing. If using a microwave to melt candy melts, do so in small increments to prevent burning. Stir frequently! If the coating gets too thick, add a small amount of coconut oil to the melted candy for a thinner, smoother dip.
