Tips and Tricks

How to melt candy melts for dipping. It is essential to NOT overheat the candy melts, or they will burn. Microwave at 50% power or on defrost setting for 1 minute. Stir. Return to the microwave for 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the candy is melted.
Cover the baking sheet with parchment paper. Parchment paper is one of my favorite kitchen tools since hardly anything sticks to it. It is important to line the baking sheet with parchment paper so that it is easy to remove the bark and break into pieces.
Choose mix-ins that won't soften. If you plan on eating this Halloween bark over the course of a week or so, choose mix-ins that won't go stale or soften. We used Oreos, which will stay crunchy for a few days, but will soften if stored longer.

Ingredients

Candy melts: You can use whatever flavor and color you'd like. Some people like melting white almond bark and coloring it, but I prefer to not color chocolates if I don't have to. Wilton offers many different kinds of colored candy melts that are ready to go.
Oreo cookies: These are fun and easy to crush up and add to the bark. You only need 6-8 cookies.
Halloween sprinkles
Candy eyes
Candy Corn
