Gluten Free Oreo Balls

Just made these last night. Not like the original Oreo Cookies, but close. If anyone knows of another cream filled chocolate cookie that can be substituted, please let me know.

1 pack Gluten Free Kinnitoos (crushed fine in food processor)

2 1/2 ounces of cream cheese (room temperature)

CandiQuick Candy Coating (or any brand of chocolate or vanilla)

1 tablespoons of oil of your choice

Mix crushed cookies and cream cheese. Roll into balls (about 2 dozen). Freeze balls on cookie sheet for about 1 hour. Melt chocolate over low heat double boiler and add oil. Mix well. Dip each ball into chocolate to coat and allow to dry on waxed paper. Store in refrigerator. AWESOME!

There is a gluten-free brand called Mi-Del we like. Very close to Oreo's but not exactly the same.

I like the Glutino brand of 'oreos' the best.

This sounds delish!! What is CandiQuick though and where do I buy it? I'd really love to try this!

These sound horribly good.

You had me at "Oreo Balls," to be honest. I didn't even have to open up the thread.

Basically it is the do it yourself candy coating. Mines is an off brand I buy at my local grocery store. Just be sure to read the ingredients, mine only said may contain soy and milk. Chocolate bark. I used the vanilla bark becasue it is what I had in the house that was not outdated. (hadn't used this in years becasue I didn't think I would ever enjoy things like this again)

Also have a great recipe for peanut butter balls that are totally gluten free.

Do you think that I could use melted nestle choco. chips for the choco. part? I'd love the pb balls recipe when you get a chance. thx

If you use regular chocolate chips you must add parafin wax or it will never harden. It is possible to do though. Will get the peanut butter balls recipe to you as soon as I can.

By the way, you can buy the chocolate bark at any WalMart or food store that carries baking goods.

Peanut Butter Balls

2 cups peanut butter

1 cup softened buttter

16 ounces powdered sugar

Chocolate bark for dipping (melted)

Mix first three ingredients in a large bowl. Roll into balls (makes about 100-120). Place into freezer for about 1 hour. Melt chocolate bark over low heat double boiler. Dip peanut butter balls into chocolate with tootpicks and place on wax paper to dry (you may have to repair toothpick holes with drizzled chocolate). Pack in resealable container and store in cool dry place. Will last up to 2 weeks. Makes great gifts for family.
