Hi !!
Here you go...
Oreo Balls
Ready in: > 2 hrs
Difficulty: 2 (1=easiest :: hardest=5)
Serves/Makes: 25
Ingredients:
1 package Oreo cookies, crushed
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 package white almond bark
1 package chocolate almond bark
Directions:
Using a blender or hand held mixer, mix Oreos and cream cheese together. Roll into walnut size balls. Chill for an hour. Melt approximately 3/4 package of white almond bark. Stick a toothpick in an Oreo ball and dip it in the melted white almond bark. Allow to harden on wax paper. Takes about 15 min. While waiting, melt about 1/4 package of chocolate almond bark. When Oreo balls are no longer sticky to the touch, decorate with drizzles of chocolate and white almond bark.

Chocolate Dipped Oreo Cookies
While you can use tempered chocolate to make these treats, candy melts make the job ultra simple -- just melt and dip.
Ingredients:
chocolate and white chocolate candy melts
chocolate sandwich cookies
optional melted white chocoalte tinted* (we used red and green in the photo at right)
optional decorative spinkles and jimmies
Makes about 4 dozen spoons
- Melt candy melts in microwave, double boiler or oven set on lowest temperature. Or follow directions to melt and temper chocolate.
- If you want to completely coat the cookies, dip one side, let dry before dipping the second side.
- You can also choose to dip only half the cookie -- in which case, stand on end on waxed paper to dry.
- Before the chocolate sets, sprinkle with colored jimmies, if desired. Aternatively, you can color some of the melted white chocolate and drizzle it decoratively over the cookies.
* To tint chocolate or candy melts do not use regular food colorings (both liquid and paste) -- they will cause the candy to "seize" and get grainy. Use only special powder or gel candy colors.
