Ingredients
- 1 pound almond bark or white melting chocolate

- 6 red and green gumdrops, halved
- 1 piece Twizzler pull and peel, separated into strands
- 36 red and green mini M&Ms
- Black cookie icing (as needed for decoration)
- Orange cookie icing (as needed for decoration)
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients
- Halve the gumdrops and separate the Twizzler pull and peel into thin strands.
- Melt the Chocolate
- Break the almond bark into smaller pieces and melt in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until smooth.
- Line the Baking Sheet
- Place parchment paper on a baking tray to prevent sticking and ease cleanup.
- Create the Base
- Spoon 12 dollops of melted chocolate onto the parchment paper.
- Add Oreos
- Press one Golden Oreo onto each chocolate dollop.
- Cover the Cookies
- Pour the remaining melted chocolate over the Oreos, spreading evenly to create a bark layer.
- Decorate
- Buttons: Place three mini M&Ms beneath each cookie to resemble buttons.
- Arms: Attach gumdrop halves on each side of the cookie, connecting with Twizzler strands to mimic arms.
- Faces: Use black icing for eyes and a mouth. Add a small dab of orange icing for a carrot-like nose.
- Set the Bark
- Chill the tray in the fridge for 1 hour or let it sit at room temperature until firm.
- Cut and Serve
- Use a warm knife to cut the bark into pieces. Serve or package for gifting.
Notes
- Use high-quality almond bark for the best texture and flavor.
- Decorate while the chocolate is warm to ensure decorations stick.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
