• For a different flavor, try using Golden Oreos or other flavored Oreos.
• If you don’t have candy melts, you can use white chocolate or milk chocolate instead.
• Don’t overheat the chocolate or candy melts, as they can seize up and become difficult to work with.
• For a smoother finish, use a toothpick or skewer to swirl the melted white chocolate into the melted chocolate.
• Get creative with your toppings! Use different types of sprinkles, candies, or even nuts.
• Let the bark set completely before breaking it into pieces, otherwise it may be too soft and messy.

 

Helpful Notes for This Valentine’s Oreo Bark Recipe

The type of chocolate you use really matters. We prefer using high quality candy melts for the best flavor and texture. The heat from your hands can melt the chocolate quickly so be sure to work efficiently.

Remember you can use any color or combination of candy melts to make it your own. Also, If you want to avoid the microwave, you can melt the chocolate in a double boiler. This helps to prevent burning.
