Ingredients
- 40 Oreo cookies
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 20 oz Ghirardelli White Vanilla Flavored Melting Wafers (about 1.5 bags)
- 4 drops green food coloring
- 20 red candy heart sprinkles
Instructions
- Start by placing your 40 Oreo cookies into a food processor and blend them until they become fine crumbs. If you don’t have a food processor, no worries—just place them in a sealed ziplock bag and crush them with a rolling pin.
- Once your Oreos are finely crushed, add in the cream cheese. Blend or mix everything until it becomes a thick, sticky mixture that looks a bit like mud—don’t worry, it tastes way better than it looks!
- Using a one-tablespoon cookie scoop (or just eyeball it), scoop out some of the Oreo mixture and roll it into balls with your hands. This part can get a little messy, but that’s half the fun, right? Place each rolled ball on a tray or baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Once all your balls are rolled, pop them in the freezer for at least 2 hours to firm up.
- Now that your Oreo balls are frozen, it’s time for the fun part—dipping them in chocolate! Melt 15 oz of Ghirardelli white vanilla-flavored melting wafers according to the instructions on the bag. Once melted, add 4 drops of green food coloring and mix until the chocolate is evenly green.
- Using a skewer or toothpick, dip each Oreo ball into the melted green chocolate, making sure it’s fully coated. Place the dipped balls back on the parchment paper to dry.
- Melt the remaining white chocolate (about 5 oz) in a piping bag by microwaving it on defrost mode for 1-minute intervals, stirring in between. Once melted, drizzle the white chocolate over the Oreo balls for some fun decoration.
- To finish off the Grinch theme, press a red heart sprinkle on each Oreo ball before the chocolate sets. The little red heart is the perfect touch—it’ll remind everyone of the Grinch’s growing heart at the end of the story!
