Dill and garlic go well with the tang of feta in this cheese ball...in fact, I think it tastes like a million bucks. It's super easy to do and for other holidays omit the black sesame seeds.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: This will make a big difference in the taste of your dirt balls.
  • Chill the balls before rolling them in the crushed Oreos: This will help the coating stick better.
  • Be creative with your toppings: You can use anything from gummy worms to chocolate chips to sprinkles.
  • Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature before mixing it with the other ingredients: This will make it easier to mix and will result in a smoother filling.
  • If the mixture is too dry, add a little more milk or cream: You want it to be moist enough to hold together, but not too wet.
  • Scoop the mixture into balls using a small cookie scoop or a melon baller: This will help you get uniform-sized balls.
  • Roll the balls in the crushed Oreos immediately after dipping them in the melted chocolate: This will help the coating stick better.
  • Chill the balls for at least 30 minutes before serving: This will help them set and firm up.

Conclusion:

Dirt balls are a fun and easy treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are also a great way to use up leftover chocolate and Oreos. With so many different variations, there is sure to be a dirt ball recipe that everyone will enjoy. So get creative and have fun!
