WHY YOU’LL LOVE THIS RECIPE

Grinch Oreo Balls are a delightful treat for so many reasons. First, they’re
incredibly easy to make. With only a handful of ingredients, you can whip these
up in no time, making them a go-to option for busy holiday schedules. Whether
you’re a seasoned baker or a beginner, this no-bake recipe is practically
foolproof. Plus, it’s a fun recipe to make with kids—rolling the Oreo balls and
decorating them with sprinkles will create memories as sweet as the dessert

Another reason you’ll love this recipe is its versatility. Not only do Grinch
Oreo Balls look adorable with their bright green coating and red heart
decoration, but they’re also incredibly tasty. The rich combination of crushed
red velvet Oreos and cream cheese creates a decadent, fudgy texture that pairs
perfectly with the crunchy candy coating. They’re the perfect bite-sized treat
for any Christmas gathering, and you can easily customize the decorations to fit
other holiday themes if you’d like.


INGREDIENTS FOR GRINCH OREO BALLS

Contains affiliate links for your convenience; learn more and see our full
disclosure policy here. 

Here’s a list of what you’ll need to make Grinch Oreo Balls:

 * 36 velvet Oreos (or classic Oreos for a different flavor)
 * 4 oz cream cheese (at room temperature)
 * Green candy melts (to create the Grinch’s signature color)
 * Red writing gel (for the iconic heart decoration)
 * Green sprinkles (to add extra holiday flair)
 * Red sprinkles (to represent the Grinch’s growing heart)




HOW TO MAKE GRINCH OREO BALLS (STEP-BY-STEP)

Follow these simple steps to create your festive Grinch Oreo Balls:

 1. Crush the Oreos: Start by placing your Oreos in a food processor or blender
    and pulse until they’re fully crumbled. If you don’t have a food processor,
    you can place the Oreos in a zip-lock bag and crush them using a rolling
    pin.
 2. Mix with Cream Cheese: In a large mixing bowl, combine the crushed Oreos
    with the softened cream cheese. Use a spatula or clean hands to thoroughly
    mix until you have a thick, fudgy dough-like consistency.
 3. Form the Oreo Balls: Use a 1 ½ tablespoon cookie scoop to portion out the
    Oreo mixture. Roll each portion into a smooth ball using your hands. Place
    the Oreo balls on a wax-paper-lined baking sheet.
 4. Chill the Oreo Balls: Refrigerate the Oreo balls for at least 1 hour, or
    until they’re firm and easy to handle.
 5. Melt the Green Candy: Follow the instructions on your candy melts packaging.
    Typically, you’ll place the candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in
    30-second intervals, stirring between each interval until smooth and fully
    melted. I also love dipping with this Chocolate Melting Pot.
 6. Dip the Oreo Balls: Using a fork or dipping tool, dip each Oreo ball into
    the melted green candy. Allow the excess coating to drip off before placing
    the coated Oreo ball back onto the wax paper. While the coating is still
    wet, add a sprinkle of green sprinkles to each one.
 7. Decorate: Once the candy coating has set, use the red writing gel to draw a
    small heart on each Oreo ball, representing the Grinch’s growing heart.
 8. Let Set: Allow the Grinch Oreo Balls to fully set before serving. Enjoy!




WHERE TO TAKE OR USE GRINCH OREO BALLS

Holiday Occasions: Grinch Oreo Balls are perfect for a wide variety of holiday
occasions. They’re a hit at Christmas parties, whether you’re hosting at home or
attending a potluck. Kids especially love these fun and festive treats, making
them a great option for classroom parties or family gatherings.

Christmas Gifts: These Oreo balls also make great gifts! Place a few in a
holiday-themed tin or gift bag, tie with a ribbon, and you’ve got a sweet,
homemade present that anyone would love to receive. You can even add them to a
cookie platter for holiday dessert exchanges or serve them as a sweet addition
to a holiday movie night.

Grinch Watch Party: Watch any of the versions of the classic tale of the Grinch
and enjoy the Grinch Oreo Balls while you are watching. Pair with popcorn for a
salty sweet mix of flavors.




VARIATIONS OF GRINCH OREO BALLS

While the classic Grinch Oreo Balls are made with velvet Oreos and green candy
melts, there are plenty of ways you can get creative with this recipe:

 * Different Oreo Flavors: Swap out the velvet Oreos for other flavors like
   mint, chocolate, or golden Oreos. Each one will give the Oreo balls a unique
   flavor twist.
 * Color Variations: If you want to make these for other holidays, you can
   change the color of the candy melts to fit the theme. For example, use red
   candy melts for Valentine’s Day or pastel colors for Easter.
 * Extra Flavor: Add a splash of vanilla or peppermint extract to the cream
   cheese mixture for an extra flavor boost.
 * Dipped Toppings: Instead of sprinkles, try drizzling the Oreo balls with
   white chocolate or adding crushed peppermint candies for a fun texture.
 * Heart Sprinkles: Instead of the red writing gel, you can substitute with a
   red sprinkle. Apply while the green melts are not fully set up.




CAN YOU STORE OR MAKE GRINCH OREO BALLS AHEAD OF TIME?

Yes! Grinch Oreo Balls are a great make-ahead dessert, which makes them perfect
for holiday preparations. Here’s how to store them:

 * In the refrigerator: After the Oreo balls are coated and decorated, store
   them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. This
   makes them perfect for making ahead of a party or holiday event.
 * In the freezer: You can also freeze the undecorated Oreo balls before dipping
   them in candy melts. Store them in an airtight container or zip-lock bag for
   up to 2 months. When ready to decorate, simply thaw them in the refrigerator
   and proceed with dipping and decorating.


COMMON QUESTIONS ABOUT HOW TO MAKE GRINCH OREO BALLS

 1. Can I use different types of Oreos?
    Yes! While this recipe calls for velvet Oreos, you can easily substitute
    with classic Oreos, mint-flavored Oreos, or even holiday-themed Oreos.
 2. Can I make these without a food processor?
    Absolutely. If you don’t have a food processor, you can crush the Oreos by
    placing them in a zip-lock bag and using a rolling pin or heavy object to
    crush them finely.
 3. How long do Oreo balls need to set?
    After dipping them in candy melts, allow the Oreo balls to set for about 30
    minutes to an hour, depending on room temperature. You can place in the
    refrigerator to speed up the set up time.
 4. Can I make these for different holidays?
    Definitely! You can change the candy melt color, sprinkles, or decorations
    to match any holiday or occasion.
