Ingredient Notes

• Chocolate Maria wafers: These crisp, lightly sweet chocolate cookies create the perfect crunchy base. One sleeve covers a standard baking sheet, and it’s totally fine if you need to break a few to fit the edges.
• Butter: Real butter gives the toffee its rich flavor and smooth texture. Unsalted works best so the sweetness stays balanced.
• Brown sugar: Packed brown sugar helps the toffee caramelize properly and gives it that deep, classic toffee flavor.
• Dark chocolate chips: Dark chocolate adds richness and keeps the bark from being overly sweet. You can mix in semi-sweet if you want a softer chocolate flavor.
• Crushed dark Oreos: The filling stays in for extra creaminess and contrast against the crunchy toffee.
• Mini chocolate chips or chunks: These add extra texture and little pops of chocolate in every bite.
• Chocolate sprinkles: Totally optional, but they add a fun finish and a little extra crunch.

Quick Prep Notes

Do I need to use a rimmed baking sheet?
Yes. The toffee gets hot and bubbly, so a rimmed pan helps keep everything contained and prevents spills in the oven.

How thick should the toffee be before I pour it?
After 3 to 4 minutes of gentle boiling, it should look slightly thicker and glossy. It will still pour easily but won’t be watery.

Can I line the pan with parchment instead of foil?
Yes. Foil is great for easy cleanup, but parchment works just as well for this recipe.

FAQ

How do I store Chocolate Overload Toffee Bark?
Store it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days or in the fridge for up to a week.

Can I freeze toffee bark?
Yes. Freeze in a sealed container for up to 2 months. Let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving so it’s easier to bite.

What if my chocolate doesn’t spread smoothly?
Let the chips sit on the hot toffee for a full 2 minutes, then gently spread. If needed, place the pan back in the warm oven for 30 seconds.

Can I use milk chocolate instead of dark chocolate?
Yes. Milk chocolate will make the bark sweeter and creamier, while dark chocolate keeps it richer and more balanced.

Why is my toffee grainy?
This usually happens if the sugar crystallizes. Stir gently and avoid scraping the sides of the pan while the toffee cooks.
