Oreo Balls
1 package Oreo Cookies
1 block cream cheese, softened
1 package Chocolate Almond Bark or Bakers Chocolate Baking Squares
Place Oreo Cookies in a baggie and smash until it is the consistency of dirt. Mix softened cream cheese into smashed cookies. Form into balls. (I like to put mine on wax paper.) Melt chocolate according to package directions in microwave. Cover balls in chocolate. Place in refrigerator.
Pete Schweddy: Well, there's no beating my Balls. They're made from a secret Schweddy Family recipe. No one can resist my Schweddy Balls.
i just wanted to say thank you for this post. i've got the oreo/cream cheese mixture in the fridge firming now.

KABOOM! And then the oven door blew open...
My husband is baking pumpkin pies at my mother-in-law's house this evening. He decided to use Alton Brown's pie crust recipe which calls for vodka instead of water, but "improve" it by using Everclear instead.
LOL, You wouldn't think it would have enough fume concentration to ignite like that. Gas or electric oven?
Electric.
Even more surprising.
