No-bake Cherry Bomb Cookies

"It’s as easy as mix, wrap, dip, and refrigerate! Really, you could have a huge batch of these ready to chill in under a half-hour, especially if you have little helping hands. This time around, I took advantage of bright red cherry stems and decorated my cherry bomb cookies with patriotic sprinkles, but you could easily make these stand out at any gathering. I can’t decide if my kids think it’s more fun to make these treats or grab the finished cherry bombs by the stem and eat them. Either way, this recipe is a win in our house every time!"

Cooking MethodNo Bake
Ingredients
- 1 (8-ounce) Package of cream cheese, softened
- 36 Oreos
- 60 Cherries
- (16-ounce) White baking chocolate
- Multi-colored sprinkles - optional
-
To make your cherry bomb cookies, you’ll want to start by preparing a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
-
Next, crush your 36 Oreos in a food processor until they reach a very fine crumb.
-
Add the cookie crumbs and cream cheese to a mixing bowl and mix well until completely combined and smooth.
-
Scoop about a teaspoon of Oreo mixture and wrap it around a cherry, shaping it into a ball that completely covers the cherry with the stem sticking out.
-
Place the covered cherry on the prepared baking sheet and repeat with the remaining cherries and Oreo mixture.
-
Place the entire tray of cherries in the freezer for about 10 minutes.
-
While the cherry bombs set, add the white melting chocolate into a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 20-second increments until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
-
Remove the cherries from the freezer and begin dipping them one at a time, holding onto the stem.
-
Making sure that the entire cherry is covered, place the coated cherry back on the baking sheet.
-
Add sprinkles immediately, before the chocolate has a chance to set.
-
Repeat with the remaining cherries.
-
Place the tray in the fridge for about an hour or until firm.
