Description

Creamy pumpkin oreo balls blend seasonal spices with cookie crunch for an irresistible autumn treat. Sweet spheres roll in white chocolate and cinnamon, offering a delightful bite that celebrates fall’s most beloved flavors.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients:

  • 36 Oreo cookies (crushed)
  • 4 ounces (113 grams) cream cheese (softened)
  • 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) pumpkin puree

Spices and Flavorings:

  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin spice

Coating and Decoration:

  • 16 ounces (454 grams) white chocolate or white candy melts
  • Fall-themed sprinkles or decorations (optional)

Instructions

  1. Pulverize Oreo cookies into ultrafine crumbs using a food processor, ensuring no large chunks remain.
  2. Combine crushed Oreos with cream cheese, pumpkin puree, and pumpkin spice in a mixing bowl, blending thoroughly until a uniform mixture forms.
  3. Shape the mixture into compact, uniform 1-inch spheres using your palms, placing each ball onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  4. Refrigerate the formed balls for approximately 30 minutes at 40°F to firm up their structure and enhance flavor melding.
  5. Gently melt white chocolate or candy melts using a double boiler or microwave, stirring periodically to maintain smooth consistency.
  6. Carefully submerge each chilled Oreo ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring complete coverage, then delicately return to the baking sheet.
  7. While chocolate is still wet, embellish with autumnal-themed sprinkles or create decorative chocolate drizzles across the surface.
  8. Allow the Pumpkin Oreo Balls to set completely at room temperature for 15-20 minutes until chocolate hardens and becomes glossy.

Notes

  • Use a full-fat cream cheese for the richest, most creamy texture in your Oreo balls.
  • Ensure the pumpkin puree is well-drained to prevent excess moisture that could make the mixture too soft.
  • Chill the mixture for 15-20 minutes before rolling to make forming balls easier and prevent sticking to your hands.
  • For gluten-free option, swap regular Oreos with gluten-free chocolate sandwich cookies to maintain the same delicious flavor profile.
