Super duper easy, not technically cookies but more of a truffle:

1 package Oreos
1 package cream cheese (can use fat free or low fat, doesn't matter)
2 containers of baker's chocolate (the ones you can microwave)

Pulverize Oreos however you'd like (food process is the easiest)

Dump in a bowl. Dump in the cream cheese. Roll up your sleeves, and get to squishing the two together.

Next, roll into small balls (size is up to you). If it's too sticky, stick the "dough" in the fridge for 15 minutes. Roll into balls, then dip in the melted chocolate. Set on wax paper. For some color, put sprinkles on top - the little sugar crystals look pretty. Put them in the fridge to set. They also freeze well.

THESE ARE FRIGGIN AMAZING! And really easy.

I may include this in my candy making. I'm already making vanilla buttercream candies dipped in milk chocolate. But these sound super easy and good. I think I'm making the cake/cool whip cookies also.

Wouldn't they taste killer dipped in white chocolate? It reminds me of the lovely white chocolate oreos that they only sell this time of year!

also how many balls do you usually make from this recipe? A ballpark estimation is fine

I bet they would be awesome with white chocolate. I LOVE LOVE LOVE those white chocolate covered oreos.

I wish I could give you a ballpark, but it can vary every day- my ball sizes are not even *insert snarky comment here*

I usually make a double back and I wind up with tons and tons but they always get eaten. Sorry I can't give more of an estimate. This was just a word of mouth recipe passed on to me from an old coworker!

I made these this afternoon for some of the brothers in my Fraternity and they loved it. I put some purple sugar on top and they looked very pretty. Thanks for the recipe!!
