Oreo Balls


My sister made these for my daughter's baby blessing and they are a piece of heaven!  I have since made them for baby/bridal showers and they are always a hit.  Enjoy!!


Ingredients:
-1 package regular size Oreo cookies crushed (I usually buy the double stuff package and crush them myself.  You can use a food processor if you have one.  I just do it by hand with a potato masher.)
-1 (8 oz.) package cream cheese, softened
-1 package chocolate almond bark  (I have used chocolate chips)
-1 package white chocolate almond bark (You can use white chocolate chips as well)

Directions:
1. Using a blender or hand held mixer, mix Oreo's and cream cheese together. 
2. Roll into walnut size balls.
3. Chill for an hour (the freezer works the best).
4.  Melt approximately 3/4 of white almond bark.
5. Stick a toothpick in an Oreo ball and dip it in the melted white almond bark.
6.  Allow to harden on wax paper.
7.  Takes about 15 minutes.
8. While waiting, melt about 1/4 package of chocolate almond bark. 
9. When Oreo balls are no longer sticky to the touch, drizzle with chocolate.  Hint: Use sandwich bag with a tiny hole cut in the corner to drizzle over top.
