I hear this frequently when I watch anime. Google digging suggests it means cheek 頬. But this does not make contextual sense to me for the times I've heard it used.
For example, at 14:45 in episode 2 of Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood. The subtitles indicate nothing about a cheek.
Thank you!
In English, "ho ho" is a kind of quaint laughter used to express joy.

You've mistaken ほほ (hoho) with ほうほう (houhou).
[方法]{ほうほう}
Noun
1. method; process; manner; way; means; technique
(Jisho)
The character was talking about some kind of method involving bodies.
