Oreo Bonbons
I often make these treats for holiday parties and there are never enough. my family is always sorely disappointed if i don't bring these treats for christmas.
Steps
Crush whole oreos into a fine , crumbly powder.
A food processor works best , but can also be done in a zip bag with a rolling pin.
Throughly mix cream cheese into oreo crumbs.
Mixture will be very thick and sticky.
Chill until cold in refrigerator.
Roll dough into balls about the diameter of a quarter.
Chill again in freezer.
Melt white chocolate in a double boiler or small crock pot for dipping.
Remove a few balls at a time from the freezer and dip one at a time into the melted chocolate.
This can be done using a toothpick inserted in the center , or i like to use two kabob skewers and use them to lift the balls out of the chocolate.
Place on a wax paper covered baking sheet.
Dipping is easiest if balls are cold.
Top with sprinkles appropriate for the holiday or occasion soon after dipping , and before chocolate hardens.
These are best eaten cold or frozen , so store in refrigerator or freezer.
To remedy this add a small amount of shortening to the melted chocolate.
