Ingredients

  • 36 Oreos
  • 12 Ounces Vibrant Green Candy Melts
  • 8 Ounces Cream Cheese at room temperature
  • 1 Tablespoon Coconut Oil
  • Large Red Heart Sprinkles

Instructions

  • Line a standard cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  • Place the Oreos in the food processor and pulse until they're finely chopped, with no large chunks.
  • Place the Oreos and cream cheese in a large bowl and mix until thoroughly combined.
  • Roll them into 1-inch balls and place them on the cookie sheet.
  • Place the candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl and cook on high for about 3 minutes, or until smooth and creamy, stirring after each minute. Pause every 30 seconds during cooking to stir or adjust the candy melts so they don't burn.
  • Add the coconut oil to the melted chocolate and stir until well combined. If it still seems a little thick, add more coconut oil.
  • Place the chocolate in a small jar or cup, then use the toothpicks to dip each ball in the chocolate, completely coating them. Place the coated balls on a plate and refrigerate until set. Tap them gently on the edge of the cup to remove excess chocolate and place them back on the cookie sheet.
  • Chill for about 10 minutes or until hardened.
  • Place the remaining chocolate in a frosting bag and use scissors to cut a small tip off the end of the bag.
  • Once the balls have hardened, drizzle them with the chocolate and immediately place a red heart sprinkle on the top middle of each ball.
  • Chill for about 5 minutes or until hardened.
