Ingredient Notes
- Chocolate graham crackers – These form the crunchy base. You can also use regular grahams, but the chocolate adds a richer flavor that pairs perfectly with the toffee.
- Butter + brown sugar – This classic combo creates the gooey toffee layer. Be sure to use salted butter for the best sweet-salty balance.
- White chocolate chips – They melt into a creamy layer that holds everything together. Candy melts will also work if you want a smoother finish.
- Halloween Oreos – The orange filling and chocolate cookies give a festive pop of color and crunch. Any seasonal Oreo flavor will work here.
- Halloween sprinkles – A must for the fun factor! Use jimmies, nonpareils, or shaped sprinkles depending on your style.
- Royal Icing decorations- Level up your bark with these super fun edible toppers: 4 pumpkins, 4 bats, and 4 spiders!
Before You Bake
Do I need to use chocolate graham crackers?
Chocolate grahams give the bark a richer flavor, but regular grahams will still work. If you want the same effect, add a thin layer of melted chocolate before pouring on the toffee.
How do I keep the toffee layer from sticking?
Line your pan with parchment paper or heavy-duty foil, and make sure it hangs over the edges. Once chilled, you can lift the whole slab out and break it into pieces easily.
Can I use candy melts instead of white chocolate chips?
Yes! Candy melts spread more smoothly and are less likely to seize, which makes them a good swap.
Cookies n Scream Toffee Bark
Ingredients
- 12 chocolate graham cracker sheets
- 1 cup (2 sticks) salted butter
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 cups white chocolate chips
- 20 Halloween Oreos, chopped into bite-sized pieces (not crumbs)
- Halloween sprinkles https://amzn.to/3JmYFTt
- Halloween decorations (optional) – https://amzn.to/41XD5eq
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil or parchment paper and arrange the graham crackers in a single layer so the edges are touching.
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and brown sugar together. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring often, and cook for 3 minutes until thick, bubbly, and caramel-like.
- Carefully pour the hot toffee mixture over the graham crackers, spreading it out evenly with a spatula. Bake for 5 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle the white chocolate chips on top. Let them sit for 1–2 minutes to soften, then spread into a smooth layer.
- Scatter the chopped Oreos and festive sprinkles over the melted chocolate, gently pressing them in so they stick. Add any Halloween decorations while the chocolate is still soft.
- Chill in the fridge until completely set. Break into pieces and serve!
