Let me tell you what I know about these Pretty Oreo Bon Bons, my friends. I think you are going to like it. 🙂
The filling has two ingredients.
You don’t have to temper anything or cook anything on the stove top or soak and simmer something or slice and dice or bless this lovely project with a curse word or anything like that.
No sir. No ma’am.
The filling is made by crushing Oreo cookies and mixing them up with cream cheese. Is that brilliant, or what? (I wish I could say I dreamed that one up.) The filling hangs out for a while in the freezer, then you roll it into balls, let them freeze some more and then dip them in some tasty candy melts. That’s it!
Besides being super easy to make, they can be made up to a week in advance and kept in the freezer until you need them. Another bonus, wouldn’t you say?
Make them.
Love them.
Dip them in any color you wish. Purple, pink, blue, yellow, green…(isn’t St. Patrick’s Day coming up or something?)
Enjoy them, dear reader. They are a both fun and oh-so tasty.
Enjoy!

I have the same recipe and these are divine! I've also tried them with the Golden Oreos covered in chocolate and they almost taste like cheesecake. Yum! The recipe also makes for great oreo truffle cake pops! Just add a lollipop stick before throwing in the freezer and voila! I've never tried with the candy melts though, but definitely will! Thanks for posting!
YUM! YUM! These look heavenly!! Now I'm double sad I missed the shower! Everyone said you really outdid yourself!! You are so awesome and I wish I could have been there (everyone knows you throw one heck of a party..:)) Can't wait to see you next week!
Sounds yummy! I've been looking for extra recipes for my husband's birthday party and I think he'll love this one.
Jamie….I can't take it! Trying to diet and all your recipes from the shower are killing me! How about one with no sugar, no wheat and no dairy and better yet, someone to cook for me! I love what you did for the shower and I'm sure everyone SOOO enjoyed.
These are beautiful! It might be fun to form them into egg shapes and use a couple more pastel colors for Easter. I just might try that. 🙂
ooh…these look good…I'll be trying them soon
These are beautiful and super simple looking! I am hosting a bridal shower in May with a purple theme. I think I just might have to make these too!! Thanks so much!
can they be left outside not refrigerated. for a week. i want to make some cake pops for graduation ahead
thanks.
Please refrigerate them because of the cream cheese! Don't let dairy sit out on your counter for a week.
Anonymous,
You can most definitely make them a week in advance, but I would store them in the freezer until the day you are ready to serve them. Good luck!

Just an FYI, you can use regular white chocolate and color it, but you have to use an oil based food coloring. They make them specifically to color chocolate with.
I love chocolate, these look so good! =)
Once you decorate the bon-bons, can they be left in the fridge for one day until being served? I don't have room in my freezer.
We used the Peanut Butter Oreos for my father in law who loves PB. Covered with Chocolate and decorated. Was a hit.
Do you freeze them all decorated or before you decorate them? Was thinking of making these for a kid's birthday party in advance. Thanks!
I just came across for these bon bons in a cookbook. Googled it to look for tips and I hit the jackpot with this page! What wonderful tips for decorating. Thanks so much for posting!
[…] Pretty Oreo Bon Bons…could someone make some of these for me, please. […]
I made these at christmas last year and plan to do it again. In fact these were such a hit we are having them tomorrow for a Birthday party. Simple to make and a hit with everyone who tried them.. We used several different colors however the favorite was what I called Grinch Balls since they were green…
Try this with mint oreos
