Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 15.3 ounces Oreo cookies 1 package, divided
- 8 ounces cream cheese 1 block, softened
- 12 ounces white chocolate or chocolate melting wafers
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil optional, for thinning chocolate
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Crush about 5-6 Oreo cookies into fine crumbs and set aside for topping. Place the remaining Oreo cookies in a food processor and pulse until finely crushed.
- Add the softened cream cheese to the food processor with the crushed Oreos. Process until the mixture is well combined and smooth, scraping down the sides as needed.
- Transfer the mixture to a bowl, cover, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until firm enough to roll.
- Once chilled, scoop the mixture by spoonfuls and roll into 1-inch balls. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Return the balls to the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes to firm up further.
- Melt the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until smooth. If desired, stir in 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to thin the chocolate for easier dipping.
- Using a fork or a dipping tool, dip each chilled Oreo cheesecake bite into the melted chocolate, allowing any excess to drip off. Immediately place back on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
- While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle each bite with some of the reserved Oreo cookie crumbs.
- Refrigerate the cheesecake bites for another 30 minutes, or until the chocolate coating is completely set. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Notes
For best results, ensure your cream cheese is at room temperature before mixing to prevent lumps. You can use milk chocolate or dark chocolate instead of white chocolate if preferred.
