Oreo Love Bites

Whether you’re sharing them with someone special or enjoying them solo, these treats will melt your heart this Valentine’s Day!

Ingredients: 

• 8 oz. package of cream cheese (leave it out on the counter for a couple hours until it has softened)

  Directions: 

1. Line two baking sheets with parchment or wax paper.
2. Crush the cookies into crumbs in a Ziplock bag using a meat tenderizer or rolling pin. 
3. Combine the cream cheese and crushed cookies using an electric mixer or food processor.
4. Form the cookie and cream cheese mixture into small, one-inch balls, then put on baking sheet about 1 inch apart. Freeze for at least 10 minutes.
5. Meanwhile, melt the candy melts in the microwave at 50% power or over a double boiler. 
6. Remove balls from the freezer and dip into the melted candy melts. Place on the second baking sheet using a fork or toothpicks. Top with sprinkles while they are still wet.
