Ingredients

  • 1 package Golden Oreos
  • 8 oz package cream cheese softened
  • 1 ½ tsp pumpkin pie spice*
  • 2 cups semi sweet or dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Place one package of Golden Oreos in the bowl of a food processor. Whirl on high until they are fine like sand. This should take about two minutes. If you don't have a food processor you could do this in smaller batches in a blender.

  3. Pour the cookie crumbs into a bowl with the softened cream cheese. Add the pumpkin pie spice* and mix with a hand mixer until you do not see any white streaks of cream cheese.

  4. Roll the mix into one inch balls and place on the baking sheet. Place in the freezer overnight or for one day.

  5. Place the chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave for one minute and then stir. Then, microwave in 30 second increments, stirring each time, until the chips are all melted and smooth.

  6. Place the frozen balls in the chocolate one at a time. Remove with a fork and tap the fork on the edge of the bowl to allow excess chocolate to drip off. Place back on the baking sheet. Do this for each ball and let them sit to firm up. Store in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.

  7. *Pumpkin Pie Spice:  4 tsp cinnamon, 2 tsp ginger, 1 tsp cloves, ½ tsp nutmeg
