Preparation
  1. Crush Oreo cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a plastic bag and crushing with a rolling pin.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine crushed Oreos with softened cream cheese and mix until well combined and smooth.
  3. Add yellow and red food coloring to the mixture and mix until the color is evenly distributed.
  4. Roll the mixture into balls and shape them to resemble pumpkins.
  5. Melt white chocolate or orange candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring in short intervals to prevent scorching.
  6. Dip each shaped ball into the melted chocolate or melts, allowing excess to drip off.
  7. While the coating is still soft, place green candy or sprinkles on top to represent the pumpkin stem.
  8. Place the finished Oreo balls on a baking sheet and refrigerate for about 30 minutes or until set.
