Preparation

1. Crush the Oreos

Place Oreo cookies in a food processor or crush them in a zip bag using a rolling pin until fine crumbs form.

Reserve a small amount for topping if desired.

2. Mix the base

In a bowl, combine crushed Oreos, protein powder, Greek yogurt, cream cheese, and vanilla extract.

Mix until a thick dough forms.

If the mixture feels too dry, add 1 tbsp almond milk at a time until rollable.

3. Form the protein balls

Using a spoon or small cookie scoop, roll the mixture into 12 bite-sized balls.

Place them on a parchment-lined plate or tray.

4. Chill

Refrigerate for 20–30 minutes until firm.

Optional: Sprinkle with reserved Oreo crumbs or drizzle lightly with melted white chocolate.
