Halloween Bark – Fun Halloween Food

Halloween Bark broken into pieces on a black platter

This Halloween Bark has become an October family tradition. Each year my girls  get super excited to make what they refer to as,  Spooky Food!

This fun Halloween food is such a great recipe for the kiddos to help out with. First of all, it only takes minutes to make. There are no long waiting sessions for the kids to endure. 🙂 While the adults are melting the chocolate or almond bark, those little fingers can be sorting out food sprinkles and breaking up cookies and pretzels.

  2. Christine says:

    Made this over the weekend and it is AWESOME!! Making a second batch tonight to share.

    Thanks for the fun ideas!

    1. Yay! I am so glad you liked it. Isn’t it fun to make?!

      1. Christine says:

        Fun and easy! I am thinking Christmas bark would be great for handmade gifts…white bark, red sandwich cookies, pretzels and holiday sprinkles. Hmmm…will have to find a good substitute for candy corn.
        This working mom really appreciates your food blog. Have added lots of your recipes and ideas to my regular menu rotation. Thanks!

        1. What about red and green m and m’s? I know they are totally different types of candy….but they’d be festive!

        2. I like J.B.’s suggestion, and I’ll add crushed peppermint candy (maybe better for adults because of texture after crushing) and/or Andes mint pieces (more child-friendly).

        3. I think I have seen red and green “candy corn”, but I could be wrong.

  3. I don’t know why I’m just finding your blog now but so glad I did. 🙂 Following you on FB and Pinterest now. Thanks for this recipe – I’m going to head to the store in a bit to get my ingredients. 🙂 XO

    1. Thanks Diana! I’m going to head over and check out your blog now too 🙂 XO

  4. Hey There! I would like to make this tomorrow night. I would like to bag some up and give them as little treats to co-works. I would need about 15 to 20 bags. How many batches do you suggest I make?

    Thanks,
    Rachel

    1. I think 1 1/2 -2 batches would be plenty 🙂

  5. Excited to make this for Halloween! Do you have a ballpark estimate of how long it takes to set? Thank you!

    1. Once you put it in the fridge, it should be set within 30-60 minutes. Hope you enjoy!

  6. Amanda M. says:

  7. Love this cute idea! By any chance, did you happen to find the candy eyeballs in a store or just on amazon.com??? Love your website!!!

    1. I have been able to find them in stores and online 🙂

    2. I have seen the eyeballs at Wal-Mart and Jo-Ann Fabrics.
