Spooky Bark
Halloween Bark Recipe and other Last-Minute Halloween Ideas! If you are anything like me, your day (life) whizzes by at entirely too fast of a pace. Decisions are made in an instant, although you’d rather ponder over them for days, and events come and go in a hot flash.
Sometimes these decisions change on a dime… a few times.
You are, are not, are, are not, are, are NOT, Are, ARE NOT, ARRRRRRE having a Halloween Party this year!
Good for you. When this sort of decision is made at the last-minute, QUICK and EASY are our two favorite words. And let’s throw in “cute” for good measure.
Candy Bark is one of my favorite go-to treats for any holiday because it takes only moments to make and disappears faster than a flying banshee.
This particular Bark Recipe is a festive way to celebrate the witching hour… or a resourceful method of using up your Halloween loot!
Simply melt and pour the chocolate onto wax paper, then drop your favorite Halloween candies, and candy bar pieces over the top. Allow it to dry and break into pieces. See? Quick and easy, perfect for you last-minute party animals!

Chocolate with candy embedded into it is my kind of treat! Yes, I could eat that whooooole pan.
That cat seriously freaks me out.
Good thing I could just shove handfuls of this bark in my face to forget it!
I love the shot with the skeleton laying on the table! Maybe he ate too much candy :) Love this idea – makes me wish for little kids again. We always had a Halloween theme birthday party for my son (birthday 10/21) but he just turned 25 so I don’t think he wants a dress up party anymore. Makes me sad :(
What a great idea! Love the pictures. I know my kids would love that spooky bark.

Love the bark with the bones sticking out! Fun ideas.
