# Ingredients:
→ Cookie Filling Base
01 -
1/2 cup (125g) creamy peanut butter
02 -
8 oz (225g) softened cream cheese
03 -
36 Oreo cookies (1 regular pack)
→ Chocolate Layer
04 -
12 oz (340g) semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips
→ Optional Decorations

Sea salt
06 -
Sprinkles
07 -

Oreo crumbles
# Instructions:
01 -
Break the Oreos into fine bits with a food processor. If you'd rather, stick them in a plastic bag and smash them with a rolling pin until finely crushed.
02 -
Toss the cookie crumbs, cream cheese, and peanut butter into a bowl. Mix it all together with a stand or hand mixer until it's smooth. You should be able to press it, and it sticks together.
03 -
Grab some of the mix, form into 1-inch balls in your hands, and set them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
04 -
Pop the tray of balls in the fridge for at least an hour so they firm up, making dipping easier.
05 -
Microwave the chocolate chips in a bowl in short bursts of 20-30 seconds. Stir between each session until silky smooth. Don't let it overheat.
06 -
Grab a fork or dipping tool to dunk the chilled balls into the melted chocolate. Let the extra chocolate drip off before placing them back onto the parchment-covered tray.
07 -
While the chocolate's still wet, sprinkle optional toppings like sea salt, crushed Oreos, peanuts, or even sprinkles on the balls.
08 -
Stick the coated balls back in the fridge for a half-hour or so until the chocolate firms up completely.
09 -
After the chocolate hardens, dig in! Keep extras in a sealed container in the fridge.
# Notes:
01 -
Go for a high-quality chocolate for a shiny and rich outer layer.
02 -
Make sure to chill the mix properly before dunking, so the balls stay intact.
