{Recipe HERE (Nutter Butter version) & HERE (Oreo version)}
I love to cook... so I'm always up for a new recipe. Most I clip from magazines or find online and then save away for a special occasion, but when I saw this recipe over on blog Bakerella there was no waiting... I had to do it right away! How cute are they!!!
With a mere 3 ingredients, this is one cookie you can expect instant gratification with. My daughter had a lot of fun crushing up the Nutter Butters and we combined the cream cheese in together (it takes a bit of upper arm strength). All total (including chilling time) this project took less than an hour! Why not whip out a batch for your next party. You can get as creative as you want with the toppings. Why not try colored chocolate or dip one half into colored or white nonpereils before chilling. How about pretzel sticks in place of the sucker sticks! I'll be using this recipe for easter and will shape the balls into eggs for the occasion... try it out and tell me what you do with 'em!
Note: Be sure to buy chocolate specifically for dipping (such as Bark Coating or the Wilton brand found through Michael's Craft Store). I also recommend chilling the rolled balls for a bit before coating in chocolate... I didn't do that and you can see the the results were lumpy (but still yummy of course).
