All you need is peanut butter, Oreos, and a bit of chocolate for dipping. That’s it. No mixers, no fancy equipment, no baking. Just good old-fashioned rolling, dunking, and snacking. It’s dangerously easy. My only real warning? They disappear fast.
Whether you're prepping a quick dessert for unexpected guests or rewarding yourself after a long workday, these little guys deliver. Rich, chocolatey, salty-sweet bliss in every bite. And yes, they work just as well with dairy-free or gluten-free substitutions, if that’s your thing.
Servings: 12 balls
Ingredients
- 18 Oreo cookies (regular, not double-stuffed)
- 4 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup chocolate chips (milk or semi-sweet)
Instructions
- Crush the Oreos in a food processor or place them in a zip-top bag and crush with a rolling pin until finely ground.
- Scoop the crumbs into a bowl and mix in the peanut butter until it forms a dough-like texture.
- Roll into 1-inch balls and place them on a lined tray.
- Chill the balls in the fridge for at least 20 minutes so they firm up.
- While they chill, melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth.
- Dip each ball into the melted chocolate, coat well, and place back on the tray.
- Refrigerate again for about 10–15 minutes until the chocolate sets. Done!
