The kids wanted to test out some holiday cookie recipes for the joy of making, so we came up with these fun Reindeer Poop OREO Truffles! Simple, fun, and the kids' favorite so far this year, these Christmas cookies are amazing.
And though it might turn off a certain crowd, let me tell you, the giggles the kids gave when we got these reindeer poop cookies made was totally worth it.
Kids love "gross" things and I don't know why. And no matter how fun I might think other Christmas cookies are, the kids will never laugh about them like they will these reindeer poop cookies.
So, if you're ready to make a kid laugh with your cookie, let's get making!
Reindeer Poop OREO Truffles
What about making these OREO truffles NOT as poop? Well, if you're not into the whole poop shape, it's easy enough to make regular OREO cookie balls and dip them.
Or you could make a snowman from your OREO balls, or even a lump of coal.
So many options to make your cookie balls unique for Christmas!
