Ingredients
  • 9 ounces chocolate wafers (such as Bauducco), broken
  • ⅓ cup whole milk
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar (about 3⅜ oz.)
  • 1 cup salted butter, softened
  • 10 cream-filled chocolate sandwich cookies (such as Oreos), crushed into small pieces
  • Dipper suggestions: apple slices, strawberries, and pretzels.
Instructions
  1. Place chocolate wafers, milk, oil, and vanilla in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Beat on low, slowly increasing speed to medium-high, and beat until mixture is well blended and uniform, scraping bowl as necessary, about 2 minutes. Add cream cheese, powdered sugar, and butter; mix on medium-low until combined. Scrape mixture to bottom of bowl, and freeze for 30 minutes.
  2. Place crushed Oreos on a plate. Using gloved hands, shape mixture into a ball; carefully roll cheese ball in Oreos to coat. Wrap in plastic wrap, and chill until firm, about 1 hour. Unwrap and serve with dippers.
