Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine crushed Oreos, softened cream cheese, and vanilla extract, mixing until a dough forms.
Using a 2-tablespoon scoop, roll the mixture into balls and place them on a parchment-lined cookie sheet.
Gently press down on each ball to flatten the top and shape them into squares for Frankenstein's head.
Chill the Oreo balls in the refrigerator for about 2 hours.
While chilling, melt the green melting wafers in a microwave-safe bowl, adding Crisco for smooth consistency.
Once chilled, dip each Oreo ball into the green melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off.
Immediately sprinkle black sprinkles on the flattened top and position candy eyes on the front of each ball.
Break pretzel sticks into 1-inch pieces and insert them into the sides of the Oreo balls as Frankenstein's bolts.
Melt the black chocolate wafers and pipe features onto each ball using a small Ziploc bag.
Chill the decorated Oreo balls for another 30 minutes to set the chocolate.
