Ingredients
Main Ingredients:
- 1 package Oreo cookies
- 8 ounces (226 grams) cream cheese
- 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) pumpkin puree
Flavoring Ingredients:
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (optional)
Coating Ingredients:
- 12 ounces (340 grams) white chocolate or candy coating
Instructions
- Pulverize Oreo cookies into a fine, powdery consistency using a food processor or rolling pin, ensuring no large chunks remain.
- Incorporate softened cream cheese and smooth pumpkin puree into the cookie crumbs, blending thoroughly until a uniform, moldable mixture forms.
- Gently shape the mixture into compact, bite-sized spheres approximately 1-inch in diameter, arranging them carefully on a parchment-lined tray.
- Refrigerate the unbaked balls for 25 minutes, allowing them to firm up and maintain their shape during the coating process.
- Gradually melt white chocolate or candy coating in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring at 15-second intervals to prevent burning and ensure a silky texture.
