Oreo Peppermint Bark recipe:
One of my favorite things during the holiday season are simple, delicious treats for our family to make and share.
There is something special about traditional, homemade goodies! (Get ready for all the baking with these Christmas cookie recipes.)
This Oreo peppermint bark is the best — it’s perfect for entertaining or even as a DIY gift for Christmas. You can make it in batches for gifting to teachers or sharing at parties and potlucks.
We’ll be using creamy white chocolate for our base. It’s layered with crushed Oreos and topped with peppermints.
My boys love to help me make this bark — it requires smashing the candies into little bits and I think they like that. ;).
Other great alternatives include: copycat Doubletree cookies, these homemade turtle candies and this M&M cracker toffee.
Oreo Peppermint Bark Ingredients you will need:
- 12 ounces white chocolate
- 6 candy canes, crushed
- 1/2 cups crushed Oreos
How to Make Oreo Peppermint Bark
Place a silicone baking mat or wax paper over a cookie sheet and pour the melted chocolate on to the sheet.
Place the cookie sheet into the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes or until set.
Now comes my boys favorite part: break the chocolate into pieces!
Once the candies are in smaller pieces, you can serve in bowls at a party. You could also make little gift buckets filled with various candies, cookies, and treats.
This Oreo peppermint bark is so pretty with the beautiful, bright red peppermints against the black and white Oreos and white chocolate.
It will be a hit for parties, snacking, and gifts!
