Quick Step-by-Step Breakdown
(1) Crush the Oreos – Place cookies in a zip-top bag and crush with a rolling pin, or pulse in a food processor for finer crumbs.

Add 1–2 tablespoons of milk if needed to loosen the mixture.
(3) Shape the Balls – Scoop small portions of dough and roll into 1-inch balls. If too sticky, chill dough for 10–15 minutes first.

(5) Store and Enjoy – Transfer to an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to one week.
