Why You’ll Love This Recipe

Ingredients
(Here’s a tip: Check out the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)
-
White chocolate chips or melting wafers
-
Semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips
-
Oreo cookies, roughly chopped
-
Halloween sprinkles
-
Candy eyeballs
-
Candy corn or mini M&Ms (optional)
-
Food coloring or colored candy melts (purple, green, orange – optional for a swirl effect)
Directions
-
I start by lining a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
I melt the chocolates in separate bowls using the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
-
I pour the chocolate onto the parchment in layers or swirls—sometimes I use white and dark chocolate together for a marbled look.
-
While the chocolate is still warm, I scatter the crushed Oreos, candy eyeballs, sprinkles, and other candies over the top.
-
I gently press the toppings into the chocolate so they stick.
-
I let the bark cool and harden completely at room temperature or in the fridge for faster results.
-
Once set, I break it into uneven pieces and serve or package.
Servings and timing
This recipe makes about 12–15 servings depending on how I break the bark. It takes around 10 minutes to prep, and another 20–30 minutes to set. Total time is about 40 minutes.
Variations
-
I like using orange or green candy melts instead of white chocolate for a colorful base.
-
For a salty-sweet twist, I sometimes mix in pretzel pieces or salted peanuts.
-
If I want a darker theme, I use all dark chocolate and top with red candy for a blood-splatter look.
Storage/Reheating
I store the bark in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week. If my kitchen is warm, I keep it in the fridge to prevent melting. I never reheat it, as it’s meant to stay firm and crunchy.
FAQs
Can I use almond bark instead of chocolate chips?
Yes, I often do—it melts smoothly and works great for bark recipes.
How long does it take to set?
Usually about 30 minutes in the fridge or 1 hour at room temperature.
Can kids help with this recipe?
Absolutely! I love letting kids sprinkle on the toppings—it’s mess-friendly and fun.
How do I store this for gifting?
I pack it in cellophane bags or small treat boxes and keep them cool until ready to gift.
Do I have to swirl the chocolates?
Not at all. Sometimes I spread just one chocolate layer and it’s still delicious.
Conclusion
Spooky Oreo Bark is the easiest Halloween treat I’ve ever made. It’s sweet, crunchy, and totally customizable with fun toppings. Whether I need a fast dessert or a kid-friendly kitchen activity, this bark always hits the spot.
