Ingredients

  • 1 package (15.25 oz) Oreo cookies or chocolate sandwich cookies
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1½ cups chocolate chips (milk, dark, or white chocolate)

Directions

1. Crush the Oreos

Place the Oreo cookies in a food processor and pulse until they become fine crumbs.
No food processor? Place cookies in a large zip-top bag and crush with a rolling pin.

2. Mix with Peanut Butter

Transfer the cookie crumbs to a mixing bowl. Add the peanut butter and stir until fully combined. The mixture should resemble a thick, sticky dough.

3. Form the Balls

Scoop and roll the mixture into 1-inch balls using your hands or a small cookie scoop.
Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate or freeze for 15–30 minutes, until firm.

4. Melt the Chocolate

Place chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl with 1 teaspoon of coconut oil (optional, for smoother coating).
Microwave in 15-second intervals, stirring each time, until melted and silky.

Dip each chilled ball into the melted chocolate, coating fully. Use a fork to lift and gently shake off excess chocolate.
Place back on the parchment-lined sheet. Optional: sprinkle with crushed Oreos, sea salt, or drizzles of contrasting chocolate.

6. Let Set

Chill for 20–30 minutes in the fridge or until the chocolate has hardened. Enjoy!


Tips for Success

  • Use room-temperature peanut butter for easier mixing.
  • Double the batch—these go fast!
  • Use white chocolate coating for a cookies & cream-style twist.
  • Want crunch? Add crushed pretzels or chopped nuts to the mix.

Storage Tips

  • Fridge: Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
  • Freezer: Freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw in the fridge before serving.

These are perfect for make-ahead treats!
