1
Heat oven to 325°F.
2
Line 8-inch square baking pan with foil, with ends of foil extending over sides; spray with cooking spray. Reserve 25 Mini OREO Cookies for later use.
3
Prepare blondie batter in large bowl as directed on package; stir in remaining cookies. Pour into prepared pan.
4
Bake 32 to 35 min. or until wooden pick inserted in center comes out with fudgy crumbs. (Do not overbake.) Cool completely.
5
Microwave 1/4 cup frosting in small microwaveable bowl on HIGH 10 sec. or just until frosting starts to soften. (Do not microwave until frosting is melted.) Stir until frosting is of smooth glaze-like consistency. (If necessary, microwave frosting an additional 5 sec.)
6
Dip tops of reserved cookies, one at a time, into warmed frosting; place, frosting sides up, on baking sheet. Sprinkle with nonpareils to resemble basketballs as shown in photo. Let stand 10 min. or until frosting is firm.
7
Spoon remaining frosting into pastry bag fitted with small round decorating tip. Use to pipe frosting over blondies as shown in photo. Top with decorated cookies.
