Foodie Friday: Bunny Bark

I love an easy treat to give to people I see during the holidays. This one is fast and simple, and the only catch is that white chocolate chips are a little pricey.  My recipe comes from Pinterest, via yourhomebasedmom.com

Bunny Bark
(makes about 5 sandwich size bags full of broken bark, so I double it to get 10 and use up my ingredients)

14 Golden Oreos, twisted apart and broken in 1/2 (so you get 4 pieces out of each)
1 1/2 C small pretzel sticks, broken in 1/2 (I left many intact)
1/2 of a 24 oz. bag of white chocolate chips
1/2 bag of Easter M&Ms
Colored sprinkles




1.  Cover a large cookie sheet with foil.
2.  Spread broken cookies, pretzels and about 3/4 C of the M & M's onto the foil.

 

3.  Place white chocolate in a container and microwave for 1 1/2 minutes. Stir and then microwave for another 30 seconds until melted and smooth. White chocolate melts faster and burns easier than chocolate!
4.  Drizzle the melted chocolate over the cookie mixture, spread it with a spatula and mix it all up on the cookie sheet. Then, spread it back out again to be flatter. It will NOT cover anywhere near the whole cookie sheet...too thin and it won't break into big pieces.

Its more of an oval of bark, don't expect it to stretch to the sides.

3.  Immediately sprinkle remaining M&Ms and sprinkles over the chocolate while it is still wet.
4.  Place cookie sheet into refrigerator until set and firm (at least 30 minutes). Remove and gently break bark into pieces. 

5.  Store in air tight containers.
