OREO Cheesecake Football

Ingredients

• 44 OREO Cookies (Divided; 4 cookies are chopped, 4 remaining cookies are crushed into crumbs, and the rest are served alongside.)
• 8 oz Cream cheese (Softened; 2 packages, 8 oz each.)
• 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
• 2 tbsp Brown sugar (Packed.)
• 1 tsp Vanilla
• 1 tbsp White chocolate chips (For decorating the football with laces.)
• 36 Small strawberries (About 2-1/2 cups; for serving.)

Steps

1. 1

   Chop 4 of the OREO Cookies.

2. 2

   Place the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, packed brown sugar, and vanilla in a medium bowl. Beat with a mixer until well blended, then stir in the chopped cookies.

3. 3

   Place the cream cheese mixture on a sheet of plastic wrap and shape it into a 6-inch-long football shape, using the ends of the plastic wrap to help shape the mixture as directed. Wrap the football tightly with plastic wrap.

4. 4

   Refrigerate for 1 hour, or until firm enough to handle.

5. 5

   Crush 4 of the remaining OREO Cookies into fine crumbs and place the crumbs on a large plate. Unwrap the cream cheese football and roll it in the cookie crumbs until evenly coated on all sides.

6. 6

   Use the white chocolate chips to make the laces on the football.

7. 7

   Serve the cheesecake football with the strawberries and remaining OREO Cookies.
