🛒 Ingredients You’ll Need
- 1 (14 oz) package of Oreo cookies (about 36 cookies)
- 1 (8 oz) block cream cheese, softened
- 12 oz white chocolate or vanilla candy melts
- Mini chocolate chips or candy eyes (for eyes and buttons)
- Orange sprinkles or colored icing (for noses)

👩🍳 How to Make Oreo Snowman Balls
Crush & Mix
Pulse Oreos (filling included) in a food processor until finely crushed. Add softened cream cheese and mix until fully combined and smooth.
Shape & Chill
Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place on a parchment-lined tray. For each snowman, stack two balls (one slightly larger than the other). Freeze for 1 hour or until firm.
Dip & Decorate
Melt white chocolate or candy melts in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth. Dip each snowman in the chocolate and let the excess drip off. Place back on the tray and quickly add eyes, noses, and buttons before the coating hardens.
Finish with Flair
Use pretzels for arms, ribbon candy for scarves, or mini hats made from marshmallows or candies to bring your snowmen to life. Let set completely before serving or storing.
