That was just one of the commonly heard terms this past Saturday afternoon.
It was my mom, sister, and I’s annual “Christmas baking day”
Except we didn’t bake at all.
We made balls instead.
Lots and lots of balls.
Oreo Balls.
Pretty sure we made somewhere in the range of 400-500 but who’s counting?
Not only are these like the easiest things known to mankind to make.
They are also beyond delicious.
Amazeballs would be a better term in fact.
Oh, and they provide lots and lots of humor when making them.
“Oh..these balls are so good”
“Your balls are small”
“I love balls”
Think for a minute of this Saturday Night Live skit…
Yeah, it was a little somethin’ like that.
Anyhow-you want the recipe?
You got it.

Dip your balls in the chocolate making sure you get them nice and coated
