Maggie’s Menu: Birthday Cakeballs
Message from Maggie:
Tomorrow is my work colleague Emily’s birthday. Years ago I tried a cake ball recipe using a cake ball mold. It was kind of a disaster! I decided to give them another try with this no bake recipe.
Ingredients:
- 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
- 1 package (15.25 oz) Golden Oreos or Regular Oreos (Note: I used 8 oz of both gluten free golden sandwich cookies and 8 oz of gluten free regular sandwich cookies found in the gluten free section)
- 12 ounces high quality white chocolate
- Sprinkles for decor
Instructions:
- Place cookies (the entire cookies, filling and cookie) in a ziplock bag and gently crush until crumbs are formed.
- Stir the crumbs with the cream cheese until combined into a sticky mixture.
- Using your hands, roll into 30-35 balls placing them on a parchment paper lined baking sheet with an edge.
- Freeze the cake balls for about 30 minutes.
- Coarsely chop the chocolate and melt according to package directions. Working with 1 truffle at a time, coat in chocolate.
- Place on a lined baking sheet.
- Top with sprinkles while the chocolate is still wet.
- Refrigerate cake balls for at least 10 minutes so the chocolate sets. Cake balls must always be chilled and will stay fresh for up to 5 days in the refrigerator.
Yields about 35 cake balls
