Homemade Reese’s Oreo Balls

1. Crush the Oreos:
   • Place the Oreo cookies in a food processor and pulse until they are finely crushed into crumbs. If you don’t have a food processor, you can place the cookies in a zip-top bag and crush them with a rolling pin.
2. Mix Peanut Butter and Cream Cheese:
   • In a large bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and peanut butter. Mix until smooth and well combined.
3. Combine with Oreo Crumbs:
   • Add the crushed Oreo crumbs to the peanut butter and cream cheese mixture. Mix until everything is thoroughly combined. The mixture will be thick.
4. Form the Balls:
   • Using a small cookie scoop or your hands, form the mixture into 1-inch balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
5. Chill:
   • Refrigerate the Oreo balls for about 30 minutes to an hour, or until they are firm.
6. Prepare Chocolate Coating:
   • While the Oreo balls are chilling, melt the chocolate chips. If you’re using almond bark, follow the package instructions. For chocolate chips, melt them in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until completely smooth. You can add a tablespoon of coconut oil to the chocolate to help make it smoother and easier to dip.
7. Coat the Balls:
   • Dip each chilled Oreo ball into the melted chocolate, making sure it is fully coated. You can use a fork to help with the dipping and remove excess chocolate. Return the coated balls to the parchment-lined baking sheet.
8. Optional Decoration:
   • Before the chocolate coating sets, you can sprinkle crushed Oreo crumbs or drizzle more melted chocolate on top for decoration.
9. Chill Again:
   • Place the coated Oreo balls back in the refrigerator to let the chocolate set completely.
10. Serve:
    • Once the chocolate is fully set, your Reese’s Oreo Balls are ready to enjoy!

These Oreo balls are a decadent treat with a delightful combination of flavors and textures. Perfect for any occasion!
