Oreo Bark

This Oreo Bark is a simple, no-bake dessert perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth or gifting to friends and family. It combines creamy white chocolate and crunchy Oreo cookies for a deliciously indulgent treat.


Ingredients (Makes ~12 pieces):

  • 12 Oreo cookies (chopped into chunks)
  • 12 oz (340g) white chocolate (high-quality, chopped or chips)
  • Optional toppings: drizzle of dark chocolate, sprinkles, or crushed candy canes

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Baking Sheet:

    • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking.
  2. Melt the White Chocolate:

    • Use a double boiler or microwave to melt the white chocolate. If using a microwave, heat in 20-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth.
  3. Add Oreo Pieces:

    • Reserve a small handful of Oreo chunks for topping. Gently fold the remaining Oreo pieces into the melted white chocolate until evenly distributed.
  4. Spread the Mixture:

    • Pour the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Use a spatula to spread it into an even layer (about 1/4-inch thick).
  5. Add Toppings:

    • Sprinkle the reserved Oreo chunks over the top. Add any optional toppings, such as a drizzle of melted dark chocolate or festive sprinkles.
  6. Chill:

    • Refrigerate or freeze the bark for about 30 minutes, or until fully set.
  7. Break Into Pieces:

    • Once hardened, break the bark into uneven pieces using your hands or a knife.
  8. Store and Serve:

    • Store the Oreo bark in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

Variations:

  • Milk or Dark Chocolate Base: Substitute white chocolate with milk or dark chocolate for a different flavor profile.
  • Minty Twist: Use mint-flavored Oreos and drizzle with green-tinted white chocolate.
  • Holiday Theme: Add red and green sprinkles or crushed candy canes for a festive look.
