Candy Corn Bark

 

As soon as fall comes, out comes the candy corn.  It's everywhere.  I've always wondered why it doesn't come in different colors other times of the year.  Maybe it does but it's not popular, that's for sure. Maybe it's just meant to be orange and yellow.

 

I've seen many different desserts made with candy corn.  I made Homemade Butterfinger Bars last year with candy corn.   Holy cow were those good!

 

 

 I knew when I found this recipe for Candy Corn Bark, that this would be my candy corn dessert of the year.  I couldn't for the life of me find candy corn M&M's though.  No worries, I just bought some other fall colored M&M's. 

 

My son actually made most of this.  Crushing the oreos and pretzels is probably the most fun. The almond bark was really good and the kids all loved it.  I do think that it could have used a bit more chunks of oreo and pretzels in the bark. Very, very sweet but super tasty!
