Easy Recipe: Homemade Chocolate Cookie Balls

Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients for Chocolate Cookie Balls:

  • 2 cups chocolate sandwich cookie crumbs (about 20 cookies)
  • 1 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup confectioners’ sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups chocolate chips, melted
  • Optional garnishes include crushed coconut, chopped nuts, and sprinkles.

Instructions

  1. In a food processor, pulse chocolate sandwich cookies until they form fine crumbs.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cookie crumbs, softened cream cheese, confectioners’ sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined and the mixture reaches a dough-like consistency.
  3. Shape the mixture into bite-sized balls using your hands. Place the balls on a parchment-lined tray and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
  4. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips in short bursts, stirring between each burst until smooth.
  5. Using a fork or toothpick, dip each chilled cookie ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Allow excess chocolate to drip off.
  6. Place the coated cookie balls back on the parchment-lined tray.
  7. If desired, sprinkle toppings like chopped nuts, sprinkles, or shredded coconut on top of the chocolate-coated balls.
  8. Refrigerate the chocolate cookie balls for an additional 15-20 minutes or until the chocolate coating is set.
  9. Once set, transfer the chocolate cookie balls to a serving platter or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
  10. Serve and enjoy these delectable Chocolate Cookie Balls, savoring the rich and creamy combination of chocolate cookie centers and a decadent chocolate coating!
