December is a busy month, but we did find time, however, to make Steven's request for an easy treat - Oreo Balls. We first had these at a ward "chocolate contest" where they were brought by the Cub Scouts. Yes, it's easy enough for 8 year old boys to make.
Crush 25 Oreo cookies and mash in 8 ounces of cream cheese. Roll into balls and chill until firm.
Then melt chocolate and dip them in it. (That step is kind of tedious.) You can drizzle a second color of chocolate over the balls if you want to get fancy. Don't they look delicious?
(Actually, this is a great treat to have around our house because the adults - who are counting calories - don't like these - they're too rich - but the kids do!)
Umm, we are trying these tomorrow!!
