Callback functions in Java

Is there a way to pass a call back function in a Java method?

The behavior I'm trying to mimic is a .Net Delegate being passed to a function.

I've seen people suggesting creating a separate object but that seems overkill, however I am aware that sometimes overkill is the only way to do things.

Check the closures how they have been implemented in the lambdaj library. They actually have a behavior very similar to C# delegates:
