Description

Mummy Oreo Balls are a fun and festive Halloween dessert made with just 4 simple ingredients. These no-bake treats feature Oreo cookie crumbs mixed with cream cheese to create a smooth, creamy center, coated in a hard white chocolate shell decorated with candy eyes and drizzled chocolate to resemble cute mummies. Easy to prepare and perfect to share at parties or with kids, they combine a delicious contrast of textures and flavors.


Ingredients

Scale

Base

  • 20 Golden Oreos
  • 4 ounces cream cheese (softened to room temperature)

Coating & Decoration

  • 10 ounces vanilla candy melts or dipping wafers
  • 1 package candy eyes


Instructions

  1. Prepare baking sheet: Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside to place your finished balls on later.
  2. Crush Oreos: Pulse the Golden Oreos in a food processor until they become a very fine crumb, which will be the base texture for the filling.
  3. Mix cream cheese and crumbs: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cookie crumbs with the softened cream cheese and stir until the mixture is smooth and evenly combined.
  4. Form balls: Use a cookie scoop to form approximately 1-inch balls. Roll each ball between the palms of your hands until smooth, then place them on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
  5. Freeze balls: Transfer the tray of Oreo balls into the freezer for 30 minutes to help them set and firm up for dipping.
  6. Melt chocolate: Melt the vanilla candy melts according to package directions until smooth and ready for coating.
  7. Dip balls: Using a fork, one at a time, dip each Oreo ball into the melted white chocolate to coat completely. Tap off excess chocolate on the side of the bowl, then return the coated ball to the parchment paper.
  8. Decorate with eyes and drizzle: Pour remaining melted chocolate into a ziplock bag, cut a small hole in one corner to create a piping bag. Drizzle chocolate over the coated balls to create the mummy wrap effect. Stick two candy eyes onto each ball—if the chocolate has hardened, use a small dot of melted chocolate on the back of the eyes to adhere them securely.
  9. Chill to set: Place the decorated Oreo balls in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes to allow the chocolate to harden completely.
  10. Serve: Once set, serve the mummy Oreo balls and enjoy the festive treat!
