Halloween Oreo Truffle Bark

A Halloween-themed treat complete with white chocolate, milk chocolate, festive sprinkles, and…oh yeah…OREO TRUFFLE FILLING!

Chocolate bark is by far one of my favorite candies to make! This is especially true when it comes to FILLED chocolate bark! I mean, why make plain, flat, ordinary, one-dimensional bark when you can make mouth-watering, THICK and RICH, filled chocolate bark? It’s a no-brainer, really.

While you’ve probably had your fill of Halloween candy treats by now (not possible for me), I urge you to give this one a try. No! I DEMAND you give this one a try!!! 

…please?

It’s basically a cross between chocolate bark and those yummy dummy Oreo truffles that are plastered all over the foodgawker-verse. Need more persuading?

Well, how about this for a little motivation…

Like I said, this isn’t your ordinary chocolate bark.

Instead of using only one kind of chocolate, I decided to mix the flavors up a bit with TWO different chocolates! Because TWO is always better than one, right? Well, maybe not when it comes to cats. Whoops, did I just say that?

Being that orange and black are the most traditional colors of Halloween, I used orange-colored chocolate, aka vanilla-flavored candy melts, aka white chocolate. Then I slathered on another thin layer of milk chocolate. I didn’t want the chocolate layers to be too thick since it tends to make the filling squish out between the chocolate when you bite into it. It’s also easier to cut more cleanly when the chocolate layers are thinner!

For the rich and velvety truffle filling, all you need are Oreos and cream cheese! Blend them together, and you have yourself one of the easiest, inexpensive, and heavenly fillings you’ll ever make.

Top it all off with a second layer of festive orange chocolate, a final drizzle of milk chocolate and fun Halloween SPRINKLES, and you have yourself an easy, yet impressively divine Halloween treat!

Plus, it’s SO much easier than rolling those individual Oreo truffle balls, dipping them one-by-one in chocolate while getting it all over your hands, and ending up with Oreo blobs, rather than Oreo Truffles.

Feel free to add more than just sprinkles on top! I just decided to go the healthy route, but you could also add candy corn, M&Ms, toasted nuts, flaked coconut…MORE Oreos! Whatever sparks your tongue’s taste buds!

Oh, and before you get started, try your best not to rush the freezing time before cutting/breaking into the bark. Since the filling is much thicker than the chocolate layers, it needs to be hard/frozen enough so the chocolate won’t crack into several pieces as you cut into it. Once the bark is out of the freezer, it doesn’t take long to thaw out at all, so you can pretty much bite into it after just a few minutes!

And just in case you need a little more convincing…

Servings 6 Servings

Ingredients

  

• 35 Oreos
• 8 ounces cream cheese at room temp.
• 1 (12 oz) package orange-colored candy melts
• 6 ounces milk chocolate chopped
• Sprinkles

Instructions

 

• Line a baking sheet with wax paper and set aside.
• In a food processor*, crush the Oreos until finely ground. Add the cream cheese and pulse until everything is blended together. Set aside.
• Microwave candy melts in a bowl until smooth. Do the same with the milk chocolate in a separate bowl.
• Pour half of the melted orange candy melts onto the lined baking sheet. With an offset spatula, smooth out into a rectangle, measuring at about 8"x12". You'll want to make sure the rectangle is big enough to fit all of the Oreo filling between both layers. Top with half of the milk chocolate and spread out into an even layer, making sure to cover as much orange as possible. Allow chocolate to set in the freezer for about 10 minutes.
• Once set, scoop Oreo truffle mixture over entire surface of chocolate. Using your fingers, press filling into an even layer.
• Pour remaining melted orange candy melts on top of truffle layer, making sure to get an even layer that covers all of the truffle mixture. Drizzle remaining melted milk chocolate all over the top. Finish with sprinkles. Freeze chocolate bark for at least one hour.
• Once frozen, peel bark from the wax paper and break/cut into as many pieces as desired. Store Oreo Truffle Bark in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

Notes

*If you don't have a food processor, you can crush the Oreos in a large zip-top bag with a rolling pin. Once evenly crushed, pour Oreo crumbs into a large bowl and stir the cream cheese in with a spoon until well-blended.
