Reindeer Poop Recipe

Over Christmas break, a friend of my Mom's gave her this quick & easy recipe, so I had to give it a try. Hence, the name "Reindeer Poop". The family LOVES them. I am now in charge of making them for every occasion. 
A few weekends ago, we hosted a bridal shower for my beautiful cousin, Misty. 
[Misty & Matt. Wedding date: June 5, 2010]
Her wedding colors are hot pink & lime green. So, in order to stay with her theme, this was the final product.
 [yes, I did transfer them from this colorful platter to something a little less colorful!]

Ok, so here is the recipe:
Ingredients:
  • 1 pack of double stuff Oreos
  • 1 package [8 oz.] of cream cheese
  • white chocolate chips [or whatever flavored icing/chocolate you'd like]
And here's what you do:
  • Put all of the Oreos into a gallon sized zip-lock bag. 
  • With some type of beater [the palm of your hand, the end of a spatula, or if you have a meat tenderizer that'll work too], beat the bag until the Oreos are finely crushed.

  • Transfer them into a medium-sized bowl.

  • Add room-temperature cream cheese to the cookies and mix well. It will become a little gushy. This is good.

  • Dip with a spoon and roll into small balls, placing the finished balls on a baking sheet.

  •  Melt the chocolate chips. Dip with a spoon and ice the top of the balls.
  • Refrigerate afterwards till chocolate/icing has hardened.
It's that simple.
