Ingredients
40 Oreo cookies crushed
1 cup red Twizzlers licorice
1 holiday sprinkles nonpareils
8 oz cream cheese
24 oz white chocolate
40 mini Reese’s peanut butter cups
Directions
- Line a cookie sheet with wax paper or parchment paper. Cut licorice into forty 1-inch pieces. Set aside.
- Crush the cookies into crumbs in either a food processor/blender or a large ziplock bag.
- In a medium bowl, combine oreo crumbs with cream cheese into a paste.
- Scoop out 1-inch balls, roll in your palms and place on cookie sheet. Freeze 30-60 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place the chocolate in a microwaveable bowl. Microwave at 50% power in 30 second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.
- Place a toothpick through the Reese’s peanut butter cup and into an oreo ball. Holding the toothpick, immerse the ball in white chocolate to coat.
- Place the coated ball on the prepared baking sheet with the peanut butter cup facing up.
- Press the peanut butter cup onto the ball, and slowly remove the toothpick.
- Make a loop out of a piece of licorice, and insert the ends into the peanut butter cup.
- Repeat the previous steps for the remaining oreo balls. Place baking sheet in the fridge to chill for at least 15 minutes. Serve and enjoy!
