Instructions
📝 Instructions:
Step 1: Make the Oreo Balls
Crush Oreo cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a ziplock bag and crushing with a rolling pin.
Mix the crumbs with softened cream cheese until fully combined and smooth.
Roll mixture into 1-inch balls and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
Step 2: Coat with White Chocolate
Melt white chocolate or candy melts according to package instructions.
Dip chilled Oreo balls into the melted chocolate using a fork or toothpick, letting excess drip off.
Place dipped balls back onto parchment paper.
Step 3: Decorate as Ghosts
Before the coating sets, add eyes and a small mouth using black decorating gel, mini chocolate chips, or melted dark chocolate.
Allow the chocolate coating to fully set at room temperature or in the fridge.
