Monster Ball Recipes

HALLOWEEN MONSTER COOKIE BALLS

Steps:

• Mix cream cheese and cookie crumbs until blended.
• Shape into 48 (1-inch) balls. Freeze 10 min. Meanwhile, melt 12 oz. white chocolate as directed on package.
• Dip balls in melted chocolate; place in single layer on waxed paper-covered rimmed baking sheet. (Re-freeze balls if they become too soft to dip.) Refrigerate 1 hour or until firm.
• Melt remaining chocolate as directed on package; spoon into small resealable plastic bag. Press out excess air from bag; seal bag. Cut 1/8-inch piece from one bottom corner of bag. Squeeze bag to pipe chocolate onto each ball for the mummy's eyes; immediately add desired decorations for the eyeballs. Pipe remaining chocolate onto balls to resemble gauze strips. Refrigerate until firm.

OREO® BALLS

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Mix cookie crumbs and cream cheese together in a bowl; roll into balls and arrange on the prepared baking sheet. Freeze cookie balls until solid, about 1 hour.
• Melt almond bark in the top of a double boiler over simmering water, stirring frequently and scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching.
• Dip cookie balls in the melted almond bark, removing balls using 2 forks to allow excess bark drip back into double boiler. Arrange coated cookie balls on the baking sheet; refrigerate until coating is firm, about 10 minutes.

NO-BAKE MONSTER COOKIE BALLS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, stir together the oats, peanut butter, honey and vanilla until well combined. Stir in the chocolate chips and M&M candies. Roll dough into 2-tablespoon sized smooth balls and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes or enjoy right away. Once the balls have set, transfer them to an air-tight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

REESE'S PIECES ENERGY BALLS (LOW SUGAR & NO BAKE)

Steps:

• Add all ingredients (except the water) to a bowl and stir to combine.
• Using a small cookie scoop, scoop out and form into a ball. Don't try to squish the dough too hard with your hands. The recipe is light on the sticky syrup so you need to gently coax them into a ball shape. Now is not the time to be a perfectionist in making the spheres!
• Add water, 1 tsp at a time, if the mixture is too crumbly to stick together at all.
• Allow to firm up in the fridge.
• Measure the oats into the food processor and turn on high. Process until oats are nearly a flour consistency.
• Add the rest of ingredients to a bowl (except the water) and stir to combine.

Steps:

• In large microwavable bowl, microwave butter and marshmallows uncovered on High about 2 minutes, stirring after each minute, until mixture is smooth. Remove from microwave.
