Equipment

  • Small microwave save bowl
  • spoon
  • Baking pan
  • Parchment Paper

Ingredients

  • 36 Oreos crushed + 15 Oreos (sliced)
  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups Milk Chocolate Chips or candy melts
  • Paramount Crystals
  • Mini chocolate chips
  • Candy eyes

Instructions

  • Start by slicing about 15 Oreos in half and remove the frosting. It’s very easy to crumble the cookies, so cut them by dragging the knife across the cookies until they slice in half.
  • Use a food processor or blender to crush the remaining Oreos into fine crumbs.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed cookies, vanilla and cream cheese until thoroughly mixed.
  • Roll into1.5 tablespoon balls and chill for about 30 minutes in the fridge.
  • Melt the chocolate in a microwave safe bowl for 30 second increments, stirring in between until the chocolate is melted.
  • Add paramount crystals to the chocolate to thin out the chocolate – your chocolate will go farther if it is thinner.
  • Using a spoon, roll the balls individually into the chocolate and place them on a baking tray. Allow them to sit for a few minutes, and then carefully press in the oreo halves – one on each side. You may need to hold them for a few seconds to make sure they don’t fall off.
  • Add the mini chocolate chips to the top of the ball for the ears.
  • Allow the balls to chill in the fridge for about 15 minutes.
  • Then, add a small drop of chocolate to the back of the eyes. And apply eyes to the front of the bat and let dry.

Notes

If your oreo balls start to crumble while you are assembling them, you can pop them in the freezer for another 10 to 15 minutes to harden them again. 
Store these bats in the fridge for up to one week.
