Gluten-Free Mint Oreo Cookie Butter Bites

Hi Bakers,

Make these cute gluten-free Oreo cookie butter bites for Saint Patrick’s Day. They look festive with their green sprinkles and white chocolate shell and will surely be a hit with everyone! What do they taste like?? Magic is the right word for it… Take America’s favorite gluten-free chocolate cookie and make it into cookie butter, mix it with candy, and cover it with white chocolate. Oh my goodness! This bite-sized treat is rich and fudgy with a light mint flavor. Try not to eat as many as I did, I dare you -Carolyn

P.S. I ate three!

Gluten-Free Mint Oreo Cookie Butter Bites

2 cups gluten-free Oreo cookies with centers removed, crushed or pulverized in a food processor

2 ounces cream cheese

1 tablespoon powdered sugar

2 tablespoons cocoa powder

1 box Junior Mints (3.5 oz)

1/4 cup semisweet chocolate, melted

1 teaspoon butter

3 teaspoons of milk

Optional for more mint flavor:  1/4 teaspoon Mint extract

Pulse cookies with sugar, and cocoa until fine crumbs. Add remaining ingredients except for milk. Pulse the mixture until it is very smooth and balls up a bit. Add milk by the tablespoon until the cookie butter is smooth and holds together. This takes about 2 minutes. Scoop cookie butter into a container and chill slightly until scoopable consistency. Scoop into balls about 3/4 inch in diameter, roll with your hand to make them smooth, and freeze until hard. Coat in melted white chocolate and sprinkle with gluten-free Oreo crumbs and green sprinkles. Let firm completely in the refrigerator. Keep chilled and enjoy!
