Let’s dive into making these adorable Bunny Butt Oreo Balls:
Crush the Oreos
Place the Oreos in a food processor and pulse until they turn into fine crumbs. You can also crush them by hand using a rolling pin and a ziplock bag.
Mix with Cream Cheese
In a large bowl, combine the crushed Oreos with softened cream cheese. Mix until smooth and fully combined.
Roll into Balls
Scoop small portions of the mixture and roll them into smooth balls. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Chill the Oreo Balls
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to help them firm up before dipping.
Melt the Chocolate
Melt the white chocolate or candy melts in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.
Dip the Oreo Balls
Using a fork or dipping tool, dip each Oreo ball into the melted chocolate, making sure it’s fully coated. Let any excess drip off before placing them back on the parchment paper.
Decorate the Bunny Butts
- Attach a mini marshmallow to the top of each ball for the bunny tail.
- Use pink candy melts or sprinkles to create little bunny feet at the base.

FAQ’s
1. Can I use milk or dark chocolate instead of white chocolate?
Yes! While white chocolate gives them a bunny-like look, milk or dark chocolate works just as well for flavor.
2. How do I keep the chocolate from getting too thick?
If your melted chocolate is too thick, add a teaspoon of coconut oil or vegetable shortening to thin it out.
3. Can I make these without a food processor?
Yes! Just crush the Oreos by placing them in a sealed ziplock bag and smashing them with a rolling pin.
4. How do I store leftover Oreo balls?
Store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week, or freeze for longer storage.
5. Can I make these ahead of time?
Definitely! They can be made a few days in advance and stored in the fridge until serving.
6. Do I have to use cream cheese?
Yes, cream cheese is what binds the Oreos together. However, you can try using Nutella or peanut butter for a different flavor.
7. Can I color the chocolate coating?
Yes! Use food-safe candy coloring (oil-based) to tint the white chocolate for a pastel Easter theme.
8. What’s the best way to dip Oreo balls without making a mess?
Use a fork or dipping tool to lower them into the chocolate, then tap off excess before setting them down.
9. Can I use store-bought Oreo crumbs instead of whole Oreos?
You can, but the filling in whole Oreos helps hold everything together, so you may need to adjust the cream cheese amount.
10. Can I make these vegan?
Yes! Use dairy-free cream cheese and vegan white chocolate for a plant-based version.
