Preparation

Step 1

MIX cream cheese and cookie crumbs until blended.

SHAPE into 40 (1-inch) balls. Mix melted chocolate and food coloring until blended. Dip 1 lollipop stick in melted chocolate, then insert chocolate-dipped end into center of 1 cookie ball. Place on waxed paper-covered rimmed baking sheet. Repeat with remaining cookie balls. Freeze 10 min.

DIP balls in remaining chocolate; return to baking sheet. Decorate with decorating icing and candies as shown in photo. Refrigerate 1 hour or until chocolate coating is firm.

Here is a tip. If you freeze the Oreo balls for a little bit you will have an easier time coating them in the chocolate.
