Red Velvet Cookie Balls

Very sticky and messy overall. I wouldn't find that if they tasted good, but they were way too soggy and sweet. And I usually think that nothing is too sweet. I would try a different recipe.

I found issues with the dough being sticky as others have mentioned. After making the dough I placed the bowl in the freezer for about 10 minutes then rolled it into balls placed on a wax paper lined plate and put back in the freezer for 10-20 minutes. The cream cheese set up and it allowed me to shape the balls and they weren't sticky anymore. The recipe is a little rich but good.

Quite possibly my new favorite treat! Tastes like Oreo cheesecake dipped in chocolate. I shaped the dough into balls using a cookie scoop and dropping them directly into the melted chocolate. Worked great for me!

Everyone LOVED them despite the way the looked. I had a hard time getting the rolled balls to stay together to dip them in the chocolate. Like others note, I should have put them in the fridge or freezer for a while before dipping them in the chocolate. It's also important to keep them refrigerated after you make them, otherwise they end up as very messy chocolate cookie balls.

At first it´s quite tricky! Put the batter in the freezer for a couple of minutes before making the balls after that put it in the fridge while you melt the chocolate so they will be firm and easy to cover them! I used 6 oz of unsweetened chocolate so it will not be so sweet and vanilla sandwiches cookies. Couldn´t find the red sparkles so I used red and white hearts. At the end they don´t look like the picture in the recipe but they look homemade and cute! I will be giving them to my family in little red flower pots. =)

These are delicious! I made these for a staff of teachers as a Valentine treat. They were gobbled up quickly. I HIGHLY recommend putting the "dough" in the freezer for 30 minutes or so before rolling it into balls. It is much easier to work with the cold dough. Also, reheat the chocolate as needed during the dipping process.

I agree! they are so sticky making balls was very difficult and look nothing like the picture!!

I just made the red velvet cookie balls exactly as the recipe said. The batter was so sticky I could not even make ball. What did I do wrong!

these are very good....I had a jar of small cherries in the fridge so I added them... dry well on a paper towel them just roll the cookie ball with the cherry inside

Nice and easy recipe, made it for my daughter's school party, she and my wife helped in preparation, it was fun, everybody at school said that it was unique and delicious.
