Worms & Dirt Chocolate Bark
Hi guys! It’s Keri – from Shaken Together! What have you been up to since I shared these utterly delicious Rocky Road Brownie Bites last month? We had a birthday (how do I have a 15 year old?!), an anniversary and a new job! It has been so busy and we are definitely counting down the days until school is out! If your family is anything like ours, the boys are ready to cue the sleeping in, tons of time outside, hanging with friends and fun Summer activities! Speaking of Summer activities, how about a delicious treat that is a great boredom buster or rainy day activity?!
Make a batch of Worms & Dirt Chocolate Bark!
This chocolate bark is a spin on the classic worms & dirt pudding – layers of chocolate pudding, topped with dark cookie crumbs for the dirt and sweet wiggly gummy worms. Instead of pudding, those same cookie crumbs and gummy worms {and maybe some sprinkles thrown in for good measure} are pressed into melted chocolate and then allowed to chill in the fridge.
Just look at this big ol’ pan of Worms & Dirt Chocolate Bark just waiting to wiggle its way into waiting hands!
Once the chocolate bark is chilled and set, break it into pieces. The result? A super cute treat that is fun to make and even more fun to eat!
Since this no-bake snack is quick and easy, it is perfect to make together with the kids. {Since the chocolate if pretty warm right out of the microwave, let an adult spread the chocolate and then let the kids add the crumbs, sprinkles and worms.} Who can resist chocolate, sprinkles and gummy worms? I didn’t think so 🙂
- 1 lb. Chocolate Almond Bark (candy melts or even chocolate chips)
- 1 cup mini Oreo cookies
- Gummy worms
- Sprinkles
- Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper or foil.
- Use a food processor {or a gallon zipper bag and a rolling pin or heavy object} to crush the Oreos into crumbs. The mini cookies have less filling which results in more cookie crumbs.
- Melt almond bark according to package directions.
- Spread the melted almond bark into a thin layer on the lined sheet pan.
- Sprinkle the surface of the melted almond bark with cookie crumbs and sprinkles.
- Press gummy worms into the almond bark.
- Allow the chocolate bark to set up - you can put in the fridge to speed up the process.
- Break bark apart into pieces, serve and enjoy!
If you are planting a garden with the kids, studying insects over the Summer or looking for an easy activity for a Summer sleepover, I know this Worms & Dirt Chocolate Bark will be a hit!
