Peppermint Oreo Cookie Balls

• 6 candy canes (finely chopped-about 1/3 cup-& divided)
• 1 (8 ounce) package Philadelphia Cream Cheese, softened
• 36 Oreo cookies, finely crushed
• 16 ounces baker's semi-sweet baking chocolate, melted

1. RESERVE 1 tablespoons chopped candy. Mix remaining candy with cream cheese and cookie crumbs until blended.
2. SHAPE into 48 (1-inch) balls. Freeze 10 minute Dip balls in melted chocolate; place on waxed paper-covered rimmed baking sheet. Sprinkle with reserved candy.
3. REFRIGERATE 1 hour or until firm.
4. TIPS FOR PREPARATION:
5. SIZE WISE: These cookie balls have their own-built in portion control and can be enjoyed on occasion but remember to keep tabs on portions.
6. HOW TO EASILY DIP COOKIE BALLS IN CHOCOLATE: To easily coat cookie balls with the melted chocolate, add balls, in batches, to bowl of melted chocolate. Use 2 forks to roll balls in chocolate until evenly coated. Remove balls with forks, letting excess chocolate drip back into bowl. Place balls on prepared baking sheet; let stand until chocolate coating is firm.
7. HOW TO STORE: Store in tightly covered container in refrigerator.
