Ingredients

  • 40 Oreo cookies
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 20 oz Ghirardelli White Vanilla Flavored Melting Wafers (about 1.5 bags)
  • 4 drops green food coloring
  • 20 red candy heart sprinkles

Instructions

  • Start by placing your 40 Oreo cookies into a food processor and blend them until they become fine crumbs. If you don’t have a food processor, no worries—just place them in a sealed ziplock bag and crush them with a rolling pin.
  • Once your Oreos are finely crushed, add in the cream cheese. Blend or mix everything until it becomes a thick, sticky mixture that looks a bit like mud.
  • Using a one-tablespoon cookie scoop (or just eyeball it), scoop out some of the Oreo mixture and roll it into balls with your hands. This part can get a little messy, but that’s half the fun, right? Place each rolled ball on a tray or baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Once all your balls are rolled, pop them in the freezer for at least 2 hours to firm up.
  • Melt 15 oz of Ghirardelli white vanilla-flavored melting wafers according to the instructions on the bag. Once melted, add 4 drops of green food coloring and mix until the chocolate is evenly green.
  • Using a skewer or toothpick, dip each Oreo ball into the melted green chocolate, making sure it’s fully coated. Place the dipped balls back on the parchment paper to dry.
  • Melt the remaining white chocolate (about 5 oz) in a piping bag by microwaving it on defrost mode for 1-minute intervals, stirring in between. Once melted, drizzle the white chocolate over the Oreo balls for some fun decoration.
  • To finish off the Grinch theme, press a red heart sprinkle on each Oreo ball before the chocolate sets.
