Hey Dani...Dani here! Did you figure out how many it made? I am making them today and I am hoping I have enough stuff. I think somewhere it said 60, or about 5 dozen. I need double that for the cookie exchange tomorrow, but if it could be stretched a bit that would be nice. How big did you roll them? Teaspoon, tablespoon? I guess I will figure it out, but if I can save myself a trip to town because a friend is already going in this morning, that would be great. Glad they were yummy by the way

This recipe looks so sinfully delicious. I really want to try it! I read on another board that they are so, so good. I think I might make them for Christmas.
Oreo chocolate balls
1 pkg oreos
1 8 oz pkg cream cheese
melting chocolate
Make oreos into crumbs using a food processor, then blend in cream
cheese.
Roll into balls and place
in fridge for 30 - 60 minutes until hard.
Melt chocolate and dip balls (using toothpick like device) into
chocolate...refrigerate to harden.
Editing:
Someone suggested using bark chocolate instead of bakers chocolate b/c it clings to the cookie better.

Hey there Dani! I used teaspoon size balls. They made 60. My friend made 70 with hers so she just them smaller.
I found it easier to used whipped cream cheese. For crushing the oreos, I put 10 -12 cookies at a time in a big ziplock baggie and crushed them with a metal meat tenderizer by hand. It was easy, fast and no mess!
Also, instead of dipping the balls, I just dumped 4 or 5 at a time in the chocolate and picked them up with a spoon after they were covered in the chocolate. It was faster and easier for me that way.
Have fun and let us know how they turn out!

Hi Ruth!
It is actually called Almond Bark. There are no almonds in it by the way, and I'm not quite sure why it's called Almond Bark Chocolate. I found it in the aisle where they sell the other types of baker's chocolate. It melted easily and tasted great too.
