Ingredients
- 1 batch sugar cookie dough
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1 cup candy corn
- 1/4 cup sprinkles
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- In a large mixing bowl, prepare your sugar cookie dough according to your favorite recipe or package instructions. Ensure the dough is well-mixed and smooth.
- Spread the sugar cookie dough evenly onto the prepared baking sheet, pressing it down to create a uniform layer about 1/4 inch thick.
- Bake the cookie dough in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the center is set. Keep an eye on it to avoid overbaking.
- Once baked, remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the cookie to cool completely on a wire rack.
- While the cookie is cooling, melt the white chocolate chips. You can do this in a microwave-safe bowl in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth and fully melted.
- Once the cookie has cooled, pour the melted white chocolate over the cookie layer, spreading it evenly to cover the surface completely.
- Immediately sprinkle the candy corn and sprinkles over the melted white chocolate, pressing them down gently to ensure they stick.
- Allow the white chocolate to set at room temperature for about 15 minutes, or place it in the refrigerator for quicker setting.
- Once the chocolate has hardened, use a sharp knife or pizza cutter to slice the cookie bark into 24 pieces.
- Serve the Candy Corn Sugar Cookie Bark on a festive platter or store it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
Tips
- Choose Quality Ingredients: For the best flavor, use high-quality sugar cookie dough and chocolate chips. If you have a favorite homemade recipe for sugar cookies, feel free to use that instead of store-bought dough!
- Don’t Overbake: Keep a close eye on your cookie layer while it bakes. The edges should be lightly golden, but the center should remain soft. Overbaking can lead to a dry cookie bark.
- Melt Chocolate Carefully: When melting the white chocolate, use short intervals in the microwave to prevent burning. Stir it well in between to achieve a smooth consistency.
- Decorate While Warm: Sprinkle the candy corn and sprinkles over the melted chocolate immediately after pouring it on the cookie layer. This ensures they adhere properly for a beautiful finish.
- Cool Completely: Allow the bark to cool at room temperature or refrigerate it for a quicker set. Just make sure it's completely hardened before cutting it into pieces for the best results.
- Storage Tips: Store your Candy Corn Sugar Cookie Bark in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. It makes for a delightful treat to share with friends and family!
