Christmas season officially begins when the first tin of Christmas bark has been purchased.
These peppermint bark Oreos are so much fun and super easy to make! You have to pace yourself around them because they are addicting and personally I could devour an entire tray.
The white chocolate and peppermint pairs so well with the chocolate wafer cookie.
All you need to make this easy Christmas dessert are Oreo cookies, white chocolate candy melts and a few crushed up candy canes.
Make these for your family, take them to a party, whatever the occasion or reason they are bound to be a hit!
Ingredients
- White Chocolate Candy Melts - It's important to use actual candy melts and not white chocolate chips. The candy melts use more cocoa butter, which helps them melt easier and leaves you with a smoother chocolate that's easier to dip.
- Oreo Cookies - You could use regular, double stuff or thin.
- Candy Canes - For a true peppermint flavor use regular red and white striped candy canes, the classics.
How To Make Peppermint Bark Oreos
Select Oreos that don’t have any cracks or broken pieces.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Melt the white chocolate wafers in a double boiler, on low heat.
Once the wafers are halfway melted, take them off the heat and continue stirring until smooth. The chocolate is ready when it can freely flow off your spatula.
If it seizes up, just wait 5 minutes for it to cool down (it got too hot).
Dip each Oreo in the white chocolate, turn it over and use the spatula to cover the sides and top.
Use a fork to scoop the Oreo out of the bowl, tap it gently on the side of the bowl to release excess white chocolate.
Set the Oreo on the parchment paper then immediately sprinkle with the crushed candy cane pieces.
Repeat until all Oreos are covered. Transfer to the fridge to chill for 10 minutes.
