How to Make No Bake Easter Cookie Balls
This recipe comes together in a few simple steps.
Step 1: Crush the Cookies
Place the sandwich cookies in a food processor and blend until they turn into fine crumbs.
If you do not have a processor, place the cookies in a sealed bag and crush them using a rolling pin.
Step 2: Mix the Dough
Add the softened cream cheese to the cookie crumbs.
Mix well until the mixture forms a soft dough that sticks together easily.
Step 3: Roll the Cookie Balls
Scoop small portions of the mixture and roll them into bite sized balls using your hands.
Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Step 4: Chill the Balls
Place the tray in the refrigerator for 20 to 30 minutes so the balls become firm.
This helps them hold their shape when dipped in chocolate.
Step 5: Dip in Chocolate
Melt the white chocolate slowly using a microwave or double boiler.
Dip each cookie ball into the melted chocolate using a fork or spoon.
Place them back on parchment paper.
Step 6: Add Easter Decorations
Before the chocolate hardens, sprinkle colorful Easter sprinkles or crushed mini eggs on top.
Let the chocolate set completely before serving.
Pro Tip
If the chocolate feels too thick while dipping, add one teaspoon of coconut oil. This helps create a smoother coating.
Fun Variations
You can easily change the flavor of these cookie balls.
Chocolate Cookie Version
