INGREDIENTS
3 cups crushed *Chocolate Sandwich Cookies (about 65 wafers)
6 ounces *Cream Cheese, softened
Granulated Sugar (for dusting)
1 pound chocolate mint candy coating disks, chopped
2 tablespoons *Crisco shortening
Green and White sprinkles, optional
Tip #1: The cookies DO NOT need to be the expensive "oreos" feel free to use a cheaper brand as you are just crushing them up anyhow.
Tip #2: You can also use CandiQuik chocolate almond bark in place of the candy coating disks, also thinned out a bit with shortening.

DIRECTIONS
1. In a large bowl, combine chocolate wafer crumbs and cream cheese. Shape into 1-in. balls. Coat bottom of a glass with cooking spray, then dip in sugar; flatten balls to 1/4-in. thickness. (Re-dip glass in sugar as needed.) Freeze 30 minutes or until firm.
2. In a microwave, melt candy coating disks and shortening; stir until smooth. Dip cookies in coating mixture; allow excess to drip off. Place on waxed paper; if desired, decorate immediately with sprinkles. Store between layers of waxed paper in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
