These Bunny Butt Oreo Balls are an adorable, no-bake Easter dessert made with crushed Oreos, cream cheese, and a sweet white chocolate coating. The fluffy coconut and tiny bunny feet make them the perfect festive treat for Easter parties, dessert tables, or a fun baking project with kids!
Ingredients:
For the Oreo Balls:
- 1 (14 oz) package Oreo cookies, finely crushed
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
For the Coating & Decorations:
- 12 oz white chocolate or white candy melts, melted
- ½ cup shredded coconut (for a fluffy tail effect, optional)
- Mini marshmallows or candy pearls (for the bunny tail)
- Pink candy melts or pink sprinkles (for bunny feet details)
- Small white chocolate chips (for foot decoration, optional)
Preparation:
1: Make the Oreo Truffle Mixture
- Place Oreos (including filling) into a food processor and pulse until fine crumbs form.
- Add softened cream cheese and mix until it forms a thick, sticky dough.
2: Shape the Oreo Balls
- Scoop about 1 tablespoon of the mixture and roll into smooth balls.
- Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Chill in the freezer for 15–20 minutes to firm up.
3: Melt the White Chocolate
- Melt white chocolate or candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth.
- If the chocolate is too thick, add 1 teaspoon coconut oil or vegetable shortening to thin it out.
4: Coat the Oreo Balls
- Using a fork or dipping tool, dip each chilled Oreo ball into the melted white chocolate.
- Tap off excess chocolate and place back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet.
- If using, immediately sprinkle shredded coconut over the Oreo balls for a fluffy effect.
5: Attach the Bunny Tail & Feet
- Attach a mini marshmallow or candy pearl to each Oreo ball while the chocolate is still soft—this will be the bunny tail!
- For bunny feet, melt pink candy melts and pipe small ovals onto parchment paper. Let them set.
- Once set, attach two bunny feet to each Oreo ball using a dab of melted white chocolate.
- Use small white chocolate chips to create little toe pads on the bunny feet.
6: Let the Oreo Balls Set
- Let the Oreo balls sit at room temperature for 15 minutes or refrigerate for 10 minutes until fully set.
