No Bake Oreo Bites (Printable Version)
# What You'll Need:
→ Base
01 -
24 Oreo cookies
→ Filling
02 -
225 grams cream cheese, softened
03 -
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
04 -
Pinch of salt
→ Coating (Optional)
05 -
225 grams white or semi-sweet chocolate, melted
06 -
Crushed Oreos or chocolate drizzle for decoration
# Step-by-Step Directions:
01 -
Crush 24 Oreo cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a sealed bag and crushing with a rolling pin.
02 -
In a mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese with vanilla extract and a pinch of salt until smooth and fluffy. Fold in the crushed Oreos until fully combined, creating a thick, scoopable mixture.
03 -
Scoop the mixture using a small cookie scoop or tablespoon and roll into bite-sized balls. Arrange them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
04 -
Freeze the bites for 30 to 45 minutes until firm to facilitate handling and coating.
05 -
Melt white or semi-sweet chocolate in 20-second intervals in the microwave, stirring between each. Dip each chilled bite into the melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off. Place back on the tray and immediately garnish with crushed Oreos or chocolate drizzle.
06 -
Refrigerate the coated bites for an additional 30 minutes until the coating is set. Serve chilled.
# Helpful Notes:
01 -
Allow cream cheese to soften to room temperature for a smoother, fluffier filling.
02 -
Chilling the bites before coating helps them maintain their shape and prevents melting.
03 -
Substitute cookie flavors or chocolate types to customize the bites according to preference.
