What’s Awesome About Them

This sweet treat brings Oreo cookies, cream cheese, and melted white chocolate together. Sprinkles make ‘em look just like candy for the holidays. Put them out for visitors and watch them vanish quick.

Why They Work

It’s easy because the steps are simple. Crush Oreos, stir in cream cheese ‘til smooth, then coat with chocolate. Sprinkles make them Christmas-ready and fancier than they really are.

Different Decoration Ideas

Let loose—red and green sprinkles always fit. Try making a few look like mini snowballs. Smash up mint candies or candy canes for topping. Use colored chocolate to zigzag on top. Get creative with every batch.

Tricks for the Best Result

Feels tricky to mix? Get in there with your hands instead of a spoon. If your white chocolate is stiff, toss in a tiny bit of oil. Use a little cookie scoop for easy even balls. Always line your pans so nothing sticks.

How to Store

Stash them in a sealed box in your fridge for up to a week. If you need them to last longer, freeze for about two months. Make a bunch ahead or wrap up as presents.

Switch It Up

Change things every time. Go for dark chocolate, toss in some peppermint, or roll in chopped nuts. However you make them, they always turn out tasty.

When They’re a Hit

Perfect for your holiday gatherings. Little ones love rolling the balls and topping with sprinkles. Make extra to share as presents or bring to work—folks will ask for them again.

Easy Fixes

Mixture too runny? Cool it in the fridge. If the chocolate’s clumpy, warm it slower. If the balls won’t hold, freeze them awhile longer. Every problem’s got a quick fix.

Best Way to Serve

Let them stand at room temp a few minutes so they aren’t ice cold. Set them out with other holiday goodies. Keep any leftovers chilled till someone’s ready for another.

Cute Gift Ideas

Place in small gift boxes with some colorful paper. Add a little card with what’s inside. Or stack them on snack trays at a get-together. People will want to know how you made them.

Frequently Asked Questions

→ Can I use different chocolate?

Absolutely! Try dark chocolate for a bold flavor or milk chocolate if you love candy bars. Colored melts work great for the holidays—think red or green for Christmas. Just skip chocolate chips—they don't melt well for dipping.

→ How do I keep them fresh?

Store them in a container with a snug lid. Keep them cool in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. Need longer? Freeze them for 2 months! Let them sit at room temp for 30 minutes before eating. Don't leave them out—they'll get too soft.

→ Can I make them without dairy?

For sure! Use dairy-free cream cheese (tub type works best) and go with dairy-free chocolate bars. They taste slightly different but still look cute. Some stores even carry vegan Oreos—check for the green packaging.

→ Best way to melt chocolate?

Microwave it for 30 seconds, then stir. Keep warming in 10-second bursts till smooth. Or use a bowl over simmering water—don’t let water touch the chocolate! Stir often, and add a little oil if it thickens. Keep it warm while you dip.

→ How long till they're firm?

Chill the mix in the fridge for 15 minutes—just enough time to prep your sprinkles! After dipping, pop them back in for 30 minutes or freeze for 10. Skipping the chill might make them fall apart during dipping.
