๐Ÿ›’ Ingredients

This recipe requires just a few ingredients and can easily be adjusted based on what you have on hand.

Main Ingredients

  • 12 oz white chocolate (high quality or melting wafers)
  • 7 Halloween Oreos, broken into chunks

Mix-ins & Toppings

  • 1/4 cup Reeseโ€™s Pieces (or similar candy-coated chocolates)

Note: If avoiding peanut products, swap Reeseโ€™s Pieces with M&Ms or colorful chocolate candies.


๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿณ Directions

Ready to make the easiest Halloween treat ever? Hereโ€™s how to do it:

Step 1: Prep the Baking Sheet

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Set aside a clean workspace for assembling your bark.

Step 2: Melt the White Chocolate

  • Place the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl.
  • Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring between each, until fully melted and smooth.
  • Be careful not to overheat or burn.

Alternatively, melt the chocolate using a double boiler on the stovetop for more control.

Step 3: Assemble the Bark

  • Pour the melted white chocolate onto the lined baking sheet.
  • Use a spatula to spread it into an even layer (about 1/4 inch thick).

Step 4: Add the Toppings

While the chocolate is still warm:

  • Scatter the crushed Halloween Oreos over the top.
  • Sprinkle on the Reeseโ€™s Pieces.
  • Add Halloween sprinkles generously.
  • Finish with candy eyeballs for a spooky effect.

Press toppings gently into the chocolate so they stick when it hardens.

Step 5: Chill

  • Place the tray in the refrigerator for 30โ€“40 minutes, or until the chocolate is fully set and firm.

Step 6: Break Into Pieces

  • Once hardened, break the bark into rough chunks using your hands or a knife.
  • Serve on a Halloween platter or pack in treat bags!

๐Ÿฝ๏ธ Servings & Timing

  • Servings: 10โ€“12 small pieces
  • Prep Time: 10 minutes
  • Chill Time: 30 minutes
  • Total Time: ~40 minutes

Perfect for Halloween night, party platters, or school-safe treats!


๐ŸงŠ Storage & Reheating

This bark is make-ahead friendly and stores very well.

Room Temperature:

  • Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week in a cool, dry place.

Refrigerator:

  • Store in the fridge for up to 2 weeks to keep chocolate firm.

Freezer:

  • Freeze in a sealed container for up to 2 months.
  • Thaw at room temperature for 10 minutes before serving.

Avoid storing near heat or moisture to prevent chocolate from blooming.
