Step 1: Crush the Oreos

• Place the Oreo cookies in a food processor and pulse until finely crushed.
• If you don’t have a food processor, seal the Oreos in a plastic bag and crush them with a rolling pin until they resemble fine crumbs.

Step 2: Mix with Cream Cheese

• In a large bowl, combine the crushed Oreos with the softened cream cheese.
• Mix thoroughly until the mixture forms a thick, uniform dough.

Step 3: Shape the Balls

• Scoop out about 1 tablespoon of the Oreo mixture.
• Roll it into a smooth ball and place it on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
• Repeat until all the mixture is used, making approximately 24 balls.

Step 4: Chill the Balls

• Place the Oreo balls in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or until they are firm and easy to handle.

Step 5: Coat with Green Chocolate

• Melt the green candy melts (or white chocolate with a few drops of green food coloring) in the microwave.
• Use 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is smooth.
• Dip each Oreo ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated.
• Use a fork or dipping tool to lift the ball and let the excess chocolate drip off.

Step 6: Decorate the Balls

• Place the coated balls back on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
• While the chocolate is still wet, add a red candy heart or sprinkle on top of each ball to represent the Grinch’s heart.

Step 7: Chill Again

• Refrigerate the Oreo balls for at least 30 minutes, or until the chocolate coating is completely set.

Step 8: Serve and Enjoy

• Transfer the Oreo balls to an airtight container and store them in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
