- 15–20 Oreos, crushed
- 1 cup protein powder
- 2–3 tablespoons milk

- Crush Oreos into fine crumbs using a food processor or a sturdy zip-top bag and a rolling pin.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the Oreo crumbs with softened cream cheese until smooth.
- Gradually add the protein powder, mixing well after each addition to form a cohesive dough.
- If the mixture is too dry, add milk a tablespoon at a time until the desired consistency is reached.
- Add vanilla extract and a pinch of salt, and mix in any optional add-ins like chocolate chips or nuts.
- Roll the mixture into balls and place them on a baking sheet.
- Cover the baking sheet with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about an hour to chill and firm up.
- Optionally, roll the chilled protein balls in extra Oreo crumbs or shredded coconut before serving.
