Bunny Butt Oreo Balls (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
→ For the Oreo Balls
01 -
1 (14 oz) package Oreo cookies, finely crushed
02 -
8 oz cream cheese, softened
→ For the Coating & Decorations
03 -
12 oz white chocolate or white candy melts, melted
04 -
½ cup shredded coconut (for a fluffy tail effect, optional)
05 -
Mini marshmallows or candy pearls (for the bunny tail)
06 -
Pink candy melts or pink sprinkles (for bunny feet details)
07 -
Small white chocolate chips (for foot decoration, optional)
# Instructions:
01 -
Place Oreos (including filling) into a food processor and pulse until fine crumbs form. Add softened cream cheese and mix until it forms a thick, sticky dough that holds together well.
02 -
Scoop about 1 tablespoon of the mixture and roll between your palms into smooth balls. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Chill in the freezer for 15-20 minutes to firm up before dipping.
03 -
Melt white chocolate or candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until completely smooth. If the chocolate is too thick, add 1 teaspoon coconut oil or vegetable shortening to thin it out to a dipping consistency.
04 -
Using a fork or dipping tool, dip each chilled Oreo ball into the melted white chocolate. Tap off excess chocolate and place back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet. If using, immediately sprinkle shredded coconut over the Oreo balls while the chocolate is still wet for a fluffy effect.
05 -
Attach a mini marshmallow or candy pearl to each Oreo ball while the chocolate is still soft—this will be the bunny tail! For bunny feet, melt pink candy melts and pipe small ovals onto parchment paper. Let them set, then attach two bunny feet to each Oreo ball using a dab of melted white chocolate. Use small white chocolate chips to create little toe pads on the bunny feet.
06 -
Allow the decorated Oreo balls to sit at room temperature for 15 minutes or refrigerate for 10 minutes until fully set. Then serve and enjoy these adorable Easter Bunny Butt Oreo Balls!
# Notes:
01 -
These cute Easter treats can be made 2-3 days in advance and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
02 -
For easier dipping, keep the Oreo balls chilled until right before you dip them in the melted chocolate.
03 -
If you don't have a food processor, place the Oreos in a zip-top bag and crush them with a rolling pin before mixing with the cream cheese.
