We love a good candy bark. We’ve whipped up some yummy ones in the past- Marbled Peppermint Bark, Easter Oreo Bark, Melted Witch Bark. This one is a simple version that is delicious any time of the year! Oreo Cookie Bark is just that, Oreo and vanilla candy coating. How simple is that ingredient list?! It’s covered in crunchy cookie pieces, and tastes delicious! Whipping it up is pretty simple too, just heat, combine, spread and cool! It’s such an easy recipe, the kids love to help make this one. Because it’s easy, we love to make it for sharing, gifting, and really just enjoying ourselves. It makes a great addition to Christmas plates during the holiday season, or in a giftbag for a Valentine’s day treat! It’s a good last minute treat that you are sure to LOVE!
Making Oreo Cookie Bark
PREP. Line a 9 x 13 pan or baking sheet with parchment paper. Melt the candy coating according to the package directions. Scoop 2 tablespoons of the candy coating into a separate bowl. MIX. Reserve two tablespoons of the Oreo cookie crumbs in a separate bowl, then stir the remaining Oreos into the candy coating. SPREAD + LAYER. Pour and spread the Oreo mixture in an even layer in the prepared pan, working quickly before the candy melts harden. Drizzle the reserved candy coating over the top of the bark, then sprinkle the remaining Oreo chunks over the top. COOL. Let cool completely, then cut into 24 pieces with a sharp knife.
Variations
One of the easiest ways to change up this recipe is to use different flavors of Oreos: White Chocolate Oreos, Peppermint Oreos, Peanut Butter Oreos, Birthday Cake Oreos, Pumpkin Oreos and more! You can also add extra mix ins to the bark such as:
Crushed PretzelsChocolate Chips, white chocolate chips, dark chocolate chipsSprinkles to match a holidayFlavored chips such as mint or peanut butter that match the flavor of the OreosCandy such as M&Ms or Reese’s PiecesCrushed or sliced almonds or other nuts
The perfect cut
Cutting perfect squares: Most candy barks are typically broken into uneven pieces. Be sure to let the bark cool and set before breaking or cutting. Use your hands to break them, or hit it with a kitchen mallet. For even cuts, use a hot knife:
Storing + Gifting
STORE. Once the bark has cooled, it can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks or refrigerated for up to 3 weeks. FREEZE. For longer storage, keep in the freezer for up to 6 months. Be sure to use a freezer safe storage container, and thaw before eating. Giftable. Bark is a great candy to give to neighbors and friends. Since it’s so pretty, I like to use clear containers like cellophane bags ,or containers with a clear lid. Festive metal tins, or even a brown bag tied with a ribbon will also work – because it’s what’s on the inside that counts. Right?
