No-Bake Crushed Oreo + Tombstone Topper Cookies

These Halloween cookies feature a base of crushed Oreos mixed with cream cheese, shaped into cookie-like mounds, and topped with candy tombstones for a spooky effect. The recipe takes about 30 minutes to prepare and makes around 12 cookies.

Ingredients

1 package (15.35 oz) Oreo cookies
4 oz cream cheese, softened
12 chocolate tombstone candies (or similar)
1 cup gummy worms (optional for decoration)
Edible green grass (optional for decoration)

Instructions

Crush the Oreos: Place the Oreo cookies in a food processor and pulse until finely crushed. Reserve about 1/4 cup of the crumbs for decoration.
Mix the Dough: In a bowl, combine the crushed Oreos with the softened cream cheese. Mix until well combined and a dough forms.
Shape the Cookies: Scoop out portions of the Oreo mixture and shape them into mounds or cookie-like shapes. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Decorate: Insert a chocolate tombstone into each mound. If desired, sprinkle the reserved Oreo crumbs on top for a dirt effect. Add gummy worms and edible grass for extra decoration.
Chill: Refrigerate the cookies for at least 15 minutes to firm up before serving.
