Note from Sabrina

Let the cream cheese soften completely to room temperature before mixing. This helps it blend smoothly with the other ingredients and prevents lumps, giving your Chocolate Oreo Cheese Ball a creamy, scoop-able texture.

About this Recipe

This recipe turns out creamy, sweet, and chocolatey. The cream cheese brings a slight tang to the Oreos and other sweet ingredients so the sugar isn’t overpowering. It’s a kid-friendly dessert and an Oreo lover’s dream! Plus this Oreo Cheese Ball is easy to throw together and ready for the fridge in minutes.

Can this be made ahead of time?

Yes! Make it a couple of hours before serving to give it time to harden, or make it days in advance and it will stay good in the fridge.

Serving Ideas

Serve this chocolatey cheeseball on a platter surrounded by graham crackers, pretzels, Nilla Wafer Cookies (Copycat), Oreos, apple slices, Animal Crackers, or Teddy Grahams. You could also set out different flavors or Oreos to pair with it.

How to Store

  • Serve: Don’t leave your Chocolate Oreo Cheese Ball at room temperature for more than 2 hours, otherwise, the cream cheese will get too soft.
  • Store: Kept wrapped in plastic wrap or in an airtight container, you can keep this treat in the fridge for up to 4 days.
  • Freeze: As long as it’s kept in an airtight container, it will stay good for up to 6 months in the freezer. Put it in the fridge overnight to thaw out before serving.

Variations

  • Oreos: There are so many different kinds of Oreos, so you can easily change up this recipe by using different flavors. Try using Mint Oreos, Chocolate Oreos, Red Velvet Oreos, Vanilla Oreos, or Cake Batter Oreos.
  • Extra Chocolatey: To add some extra chocolate flavor to the cream cheese mixture apart from the Oreo crumbs try adding in half a cup of cocoa powder. Add it to the stand mixer at the same time as the powdered sugar and brown sugar.
  • Add-ins: For some add-ins try mixing in mini chocolate chips, pretzel pieces, crushed brownies, M&Ms, Reese’s pieces, or broken apart candy bars. You could also mix in some peanut butter with the cream cheese for a different flavor.

  1. OK….Oreo balls are probably my all time favorite treat. HOW GENIUS to turn them into a dessert ball. It was soooooo yummy, I’m drooling now just thinking about it.

    1. These are made for a party so it yields about 18 servings. I guess it would depend on how much everyone is getting on their dippers. Enjoy!
