When developing this recipe, I decided to play with the cream cheese ratio a bit. Past Oreo balls I’ve made were good, but sometimes felt a little too sweet. By using Double Stuf Oreos this time around, I was able to get away with using only 3 ounces of cream cheese to reach the ideal moldable consistency. I am a huge fan of the results—they strike a much better balance—but if you prefer a richer or softer cream cheese texture, you can totally do your thing there too!
Easy No Bake Halloween Ghost Oreo Balls
I had a lot of fun making these. I originally wanted to make Ghost Oreo Ball pops by molding the Oreo cream cheese mixture and dipping into the almond bark. After playing around for a bit, I really liked the details that putting everything in the mold produced. It takes a bit longer, but it was totally worth it in my opinion but you can totally dip them if you would rather do that.
Ingredients
Almond bark
Coconut oil
Cream cheese
Double Stuf Oreos
Black candy melts
Piping bag
Ghost mold
Directions
Crush the Oreos: Break down the Oreos using a blender, a food processor, or go old school and place them in a baggie and crushing them with a rolling pin.
Mix with cream cheese: Combine the crushed Oreos with just enough cream cheese to reach a moldable consistency. Add a bit more cream cheese if you prefer a softer texture.
Shape the initial ghosts: Press the Oreo mixture firmly into your ghost mold to create the filling shapes, then gently remove them and set them aside. (Note: Do not fill the mold to the very top yet—you need to leave empty space around the Oreo mixture for the outer chocolate shell.)
Melt the white chocolate base: Melt half a package of almond bark with 1 teaspoon of coconut oil, melting the rest later if needed.
Coat in the mold: Spoon a thin layer of melted almond bark into the bottom of the ghost mold. Place your pre-molded Oreo ghost back into the mold on top of the chocolate, then cover it completely with more melted almond bark so it’s fully encased.
Set and demold: Allow the chocolate to harden completely, then gently pop the ghosts out of the mold and set aside. Repeat this process until all your Oreo ghosts are coated in white chocolate. Just a tip to speed up the process you can place them into the freezer for 5 to 10 minutes or until completely hardened.
Prepare the black candy melts: Melt about 1/4 cup of black candy melts with 1/4 teaspoon of coconut oil.
Add the eyes: Transfer the melted black candy into a piping bag, snip a very small hole in the tip, and carefully pipe small dots for the eyes onto each ghost.
Store: Let the candy eyes dry completely, then serve. Store your finished ghosts in the refrigerator because of the cream cheese filling.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where did you get your mold.
I love this mold, the little ghost are so darn cute. I got my mold from Walmart they have a variety of molds that you can view on their website here.
Do I have to add coconut oil to the almond bark?
No, you do not have to add coconut oil, it’s totally optional. In my opinion it does give it a smoother texture, making the consistency easier to work with than without it.
Can you add other types of oil?
Yes, you sure can I would just be sure not to use one that may leave a flavor behind.

No, but I love mine and if you do a lot with candy melts I highly recommend one. They help me keep my chocolate just right while I get my together together, lol. Mine has been my trusted sidekick for many moons and my Wilton candy melt pot for YEARS and it’s still going strong.
