CHOCOLATE COVERED OREO BALLS

Steps:

• Crush the Oreos to bits, either in a processor or plastic bag. You don't want a powder, but you don't want chunks.
• Mix the room temperature, softened cream cheese and Oreo bits together. If you use a hand mixer, be prepared for the mixture to get "stuck" in the paddles. We finished off using a spatula.
• Roll mixture into bite-sized (large grape/chestnut) pieces.
• Chill the balls on waxed paper for about an hour, or until firm to the touch.
• Melt the (white) chocolate chips in double boiler or in the microwave as instructed by the packaging.
• Stick a toothpick in each ball, then dip into the melted the (white) chocolate. Spin/roll excess off (slowly).
• Optional - If you want to add additional decorations such as sprinkles, etc - now is the time to do it.
• Allow to harden on wax paper, approximately 15-20 minutes.
• Optional - Drizzle with more chocolate and allow to harden again.
• Optional - Remove toothpick and refrigerate.

CHOCOLATE-COVERED OREOS®

Steps:

• Place milk chocolate chips and shortening in the top of a double boiler over simmering water. Stir frequently, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching, until chocolate is melted, about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Drop one Oreo® into the chocolate, making sure it is covered completely. Remove the cookie using a knife, picking it up by the bottom. Lightly shake or tap the knife so that excess chocolate can be removed and place on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining cookies.
• Let cookies dry completely, about 1 hour.
• Drizzle melted white chocolate over dried cookies. Let dry completely before storing, about 1 hour more.

WHITE-CHOCOLATE COVERED OREOS

Steps:

• Melt white chocolate (In microwave, over stove, etc.).
• The time it takes to melt it varies, depending on the heat of the microwave or stove.
• Heat it up for a minute or two, check on it, and heat it again.
• Dip each oreo in white chocolate, then lay out on a paper towel (You can really use anything, tinfoil, baking sheet, etc.).
• Sprinkle with sprinkles!
• Let cool for about 30 minutes.
• Enjoy!
