Ingredients

1 package (15.25 oz) Oreo cookies
8 oz cream cheese, softened
½ tsp mint extract
8 oz dark or semi-sweet chocolate, chopped
½ cup green sprinkles

Instructions

Crush the Oreo cookies in a food processor until finely ground.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the crushed Oreos with softened cream cheese and mint extract until smooth.
Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Chill the balls in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
Melt the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals until smooth.
Dip each chilled ball into the melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off before returning them to the baking sheet.
Immediately sprinkle with green sprinkles before the chocolate sets.
Chill again for 15-20 minutes until the chocolate hardens.
