With the holidays rapidly approaching, I’m already thinking of ways to spend less time in the kitchen and more time enjoying family and friends. If dinner is a big production in your home, lighten the work load by choosing an easy dessert spread everyone would love. Choosing the right theme helps to simplify the process and I know when I’ve chosen a winner. Who can go wrong with Thanksgiving entertaining with OREO, America’s favorite cookie? Oreo-Cookie-Balls-Party-Blulabelbungalow-2sm

Oreo-Cookie-Balls-Party-Blulabelbungalow-12I giggle to myself each time someone admits to having a “sweet tooth.” I think every tooth in my mouth qualifies for that title. With that in mind I’ve curated an irresistible selection of after-dinner delights that’s sure to satisfy the pickiest palates. This year’s featured dessert is my Pumpkin Spice OREO Lollipops. The basic recipe is really a simple, yet delicious combination of three ingredients, however I’ve added a fourth ingredient that I truly believe ushers in the flavor of the season.

When I tell you this was a crowd favorite, you don’t have to take my word for it. I’ve got the photos to prove it. I could barely take a photo before someone was reaching into my frame. Ha! I’m not complaining. There’s nothing like food and fellowship with family and friends. Oreo-Cookie-Balls-Party-Blulabelbungalow-8

The majority of the items purchased for my table were found at Walmart including every flavor of OREO cookie available. Try the OREO Lollipop recipe and keep in mind you can use their other cookie flavors like berry, mint, or even peanut butter. Go ahead and make it your own! Find more inspiring recipes to try at deliciousmomentsofjoy.com and volunteer to bring this sweet treat for your next family gathering, office party, birthday party, book club meeting—you get the idea. This dessert is a time-saver, crowd-pleaser, and great for any occasion.
