happy national candy corn day

ok, so you all know that we loooove halloween & since today is national candy corn day we decided to make all of our teachers a lil sweet spooky treat to celebrate it! so of course we made our famous "candy corn cookie bark"!  it's so easy & mmm, mmm, good we wanted to share it in case you wanted to try it too!
14 whole oreos, broken up. we used the halloween ones with the orange filling. 
1 C pretzels, broken into pieces. we used the small stick pretzels
1 lb. white chocolate or milk chocolate, almond bark or melts.
1 C candy corm.
1/2 C salted peanuts
halloween sprinkles or orange and black colored sprinkles.
cover a large cookie sheet with wax paper. spread broken cookies, pretzels and about 3/4 C of the candy corn onto the waxed paper.  place white/milk chocolate in a container and microwave for 1 1/2 minutes.  stir and then microwave for another 30 seconds until melted and smooth.  white chocolate melts faster and burns easier than chocolate.
drizzle the melted chocolate over the cookie mixture, spreading with spatula if needed to coat evenly.  sprinkle remaining candy corn and colored sprinkles over the chocolate while it is still wet.  do not let it harden.  place cookie tray into refrigerator until set and firm. remove and gently break bark into small pieces. store in air tight container.
