Boo! Celebrate Halloween with these more-fun-than-spooky ghost dessert bites! Creamy chocolate cookie balls are dipped in white candy and decorated with jelly beans.

## Ingredients

- 1 pkg. (8 oz.) brick cream cheese, softened
- 36 OREO Cookies, crushed
- 16 oz. white candy coating wafers, melted
- 48 white jelly beans, halved lengthwise
- 2 Tbsp. black sprinkles

## Directions

1. Mix cream cheese and cookie crumbs until blended; shape into 48 (1-inch) balls. Place on waxed paper-covered rimmed baking sheet. Refrigerate 20 min.
2. Dip balls, 1 at a time, in coating, turning to evenly coat each ball. Return to baking sheet, allowing excess coating to pool at bottom of each ball. Immediately decorate with jelly beans and sprinkles to resemble ghost heads as shown in photo, securing pieces with remaining white coating if necessary.
3. Refrigerate 1 hour or until firm. Keep refrigerated.

## Tips

- Keep the cookie balls refrigerated until ready to dip in the melted candy wafers. Then, add balls, in batches, to bowl of melted coating. Use 2 forks to roll balls in coating until evenly coated. Remove balls with forks, letting excess coating drip back into bowl. Place balls in prepared pan; let stand until firm.
- Prepare using 4 pkg. (4 oz. each) white baking chocolate.
- If coating becomes too thick, add up to 2 tsp. shortening to each 16 oz. of candy wafers.
- Substitute confetti candies for the sprinkles.
- With their built-in portion control, these holiday treats can be enjoyed on a special occasion.
