Oreo Balls

Now this is something that needs no introduction. Oreo Balls, need I say more?

Oreo Balls (Makes approx. 52 balls at 2 points a piece)

Ingredients:

1 pkg. cream cheese -- (8 oz.) softened
4 cups crushed Oreo cookies (1lb 2 oz. pkg)
2 cups chocolate baking chips (Toll house)
1 T. shortening (Optional)

Directions:

On high speed of an electric mixer, beat cream cheese until light and fluffy. Add cookies and beat until well combined. Refrigerate 2 hours until chilled enough to roll.

Roll dough into 1" balls. Over a double boiler, melt chips and shortening until smooth. Dip balls into mixture and thoroughly coat. Place on wax paper to harden. Store in refrigerator.

When I made these I decided not to use the shortening. I also stuck mine in the freezer for a bit to help them set up quicker. The Oreo Balls are absolutely to die for. The mix of hard chocolate and creamy chocolate is just incredible. Talk about a chocolate fix! These little things are so rich one is really all you need. Enjoy :)

*Note: Because of the cream cheese these do contain dairy.

**Edit: This recipe should list fat-free cream cheese instead of regular cream cheese.
