  2. Step 2: Melt the white morsels according to the directions on the package, usually using a microwave or double boiler.
  3. Step 3: Quickly stir in the mint extract and a few drops of green food coloring into the melted morsels.
  4. Step 4: Stir the broken Oreos into the white chocolate mixture until evenly coated.
  5. Step 5: Pour the mixture into a pan lined with wax paper and spread it evenly.

Tips & Variations

  • For an extra festive look, swirl in white and green chocolate for a marbled effect before freezing.
  • If you prefer a stronger mint flavor, increase the mint extract gradually but be careful not to overpower the sweetness.
  • Try adding chopped nuts or drizzling dark chocolate over the top for additional texture and flavor.

Storage

Store the mint Oreo bark in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator to keep it firm. It will stay fresh for up to two weeks. If refrigerated, allow it to come to room temperature for a few minutes before serving for best flavor and texture.

FAQs

Can I use dark or milk chocolate instead of white chocolate?

Yes, you can substitute with dark or milk chocolate, but the mint flavor may taste different and the bark will have a different color and sweetness level.

How do I prevent the white chocolate from seizing when melting?

Use gentle heat and stir frequently, melting in short intervals if using a microwave. Avoid any water contact, as moisture can cause the chocolate to seize.

  • Adjust mint extract according to taste; start with less to avoid overpowering the white chocolate.
  • Freezing speeds up setting time but you can refrigerate if preferred; just allow more time for the bark to firm up.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
