Coconut Snowballs
- Author: The Peach Kitchen
- 1 pack Oreo cookies, that’s around 24 pieces
- ¾ cup or ¾ of a pack of cream cheese {I used Philadelphia}
- 1 cup White chocolate chips or candy melts
- 1 tbsp canola oil
- shredded coconuts and white sugar crystals
- Remove Oreo fillings. I think it’s too sweet if you include them in the truffles.
- Use a food processor to crush oreo cookies. I don’t have a food processor so I just imagined the face of somebody I’m not so fond of to crush Oreos manually.
- Stir in softened cream cheese with the crushed oreos. Use the back of a large spoon to help mash the two together.
- Roll the mixture into 1″ balls and place on a plate or a plastic container.
- Refrigerate for a few hours. I let mine sit in the fridge overnight.They will look like those yummy oreo balls below.
- Combine white chocolate chips and canola oil.
- Melt white chocolate chips using double broiler or microwave.
- Dip oreo balls into white chocolate, tap off the excess.
- Roll into shredded coconuts and white sugar crystals.
- Set aside on a wax-paper-lined cookie sheet to dry.
- Refrigerate for a couple of hours before serving.
