Oreo Balls: Simple and Easy

The holidays are ALL about the sweets! One of my favorite things to make is Oreo balls. They are really simple to make, and so delicious! If you're needing a quick treat to make that is festive and yummy, then this is for your!

Ingredients:
1 package of Oreos (approx. 36 cookies)
1 8 oz. package of cream cheese (softened)
1 package of vanilla candy coating
Wax paper

Optional:
Sprinkles

1. Gather all your ingredients. This is a time-sensitive recipe because of working with the candy coating.



2. Place entire package of Oreos in a blender, and blend until the Oreos have a fine consistency.


3. Add entire package of cream cheese to the Oreo crumbs. It is best to cut up the cream cheese into smaller pieces so it blends easier. Then blend until a smooth consistency.


4. When you are done mixing, place wax paper on a baking sheet. Scoop small balls of the Oreo mixture onto the pan. I used a small scoop that made the perfect shape. When you are done, put the tray of the Oreo balls into the freezer for about 10 minutes. This will help them firm up, and not fall apart when you dip them.

5. When the balls feel firm, it is time to warm your candy coating in the microwave. It is better to melt the coating in a glass bowl, so it is easier to dip.

6. Place a sheet of wax paper onto the counter to put the Oreo balls on after you dip. I use a fork to dip them, and let the ball slide off the fork. For a festive touch, you can add sprinkles! The dipped Oreo balls cool relatively fast, so if you decide to put sprinkles on you have to do it right after you place the ball on the wax paper. The whole dipping process can be quite messy, but that's what makes them homemade!


7. Grab a festive plate or container to place them on and ENJOY!



I hope you enjoyed reading this easy recipe, and you can try it out yourself! Let me know how they turn out in the comments, or send me a message on my contact page!

Merry Christmas & Have a wonderful time with family and friends. 
Don't forget the true meaning of Christmas! "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. (John 3:16)"

My time on Royal Caribbean: The Ports

I am so excited to write this post! Traveling is one of my absolute favorite things to do! This post is the second in my cruise series, and it is all about the ports! If you've ever been on a cruise, then you know there are so many options of ports. It''s hard to know which one to choose! It may seem scary, but sometimes it's okay to venture out on your own and trust the reviews of many frequent cruise goers. On this 7-day Royal Caribbean cruise, we had 3 port stops. 1. Roatan, Honduras The first port we went to was in Roatan, Honduras. We went to a place called Maya Key. We rode a little boat from the port straight to the island of Maya Key and it took about 5 minutes. When we got there, the staff showed us a mini tour. We were able to pick our own chairs for the day. There were chairs lined up all along the shoreline. There was a pier that when you walked to the end of, you could swim out to a drop off. The water started off at about 4 feet, then as you swim out ...
