Ingredients
Scale
Oreos
- 20 regular Oreo cookies (about half of a 439 g package)
White Chocolate Mixture
- 680 g white chocolate morsels
- 0.25–0.5 teaspoons mint extract, to taste
- Green food coloring, as needed
Instructions
- Prepare Oreos: Break the Oreo cookies into small, bite-size pieces and place them into a large mixing bowl for easy incorporation.
- Melt White Chocolate: Melt the white chocolate morsels using a double boiler or microwave, carefully following the package directions until you achieve a smooth, creamy consistency free of lumps.
- Add Mint and Color: Quickly stir in the mint extract and your desired amount of green food coloring into the melted white chocolate to infuse flavor and color uniformly.
- Combine and Spread: Fold the broken Oreo pieces into the mint-infused white chocolate, mixing gently to evenly distribute the cookies throughout.
- Chill and Set: Pour the mixture into a baking pan lined with wax paper and spread it out evenly. Transfer the pan to the freezer and chill for about two hours until firm.
- Serve: After chilling, remove the bark from the pan and break it into bite sized pieces. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container.
Notes
- If using microwave to melt chocolate, heat in 30-second intervals, stirring in between to prevent burning.
- Adjust mint extract carefully; start with less and add more to avoid overpowering the white chocolate flavor.
- For easier removal, ensure the wax paper covers all sides of the baking pan.
- This bark can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- Feel free to customize with additional mix-ins like chopped nuts or peppermint candies for extra texture.
