Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to make this kid-friendly Halloween dessert (makes 12–16 pieces):
- 12 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips (or milk chocolate)
- 8 oz white chocolate chips
- 1 cup Halloween-themed candies (e.g., M&M’s, candy corn, or Reese’s Pieces)
- 1/2 cup mini pretzels (broken into pieces)
- 1/4 cup Halloween sprinkles (pumpkins, ghosts, or bats)
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional, for smoother melting)
- Candy eyes (optional, for spooky decoration)
- Parchment paper (for easy cleanup)
These ingredients are simple and create a homemade candy bark bursting with Halloween dessert recipe flair.
Preparation Instructions

Follow these steps to create your Halloween Candy Bark:
- Prep the Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easy for your easy Halloween treats.
- Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine semi-sweet chocolate chips with 1/2 tablespoon coconut oil (if using). Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Spread evenly onto the prepared baking sheet in a thin layer (about 1/4-inch thick) for the base of your spooky candy bark.
- Melt the White Chocolate: In another microwave-safe bowl, melt white chocolate chips with the remaining coconut oil (if using) in 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Drizzle or spread over the semi-sweet chocolate layer in swirls for a spooky effect.
- Add Toppings: Sprinkle Halloween-themed candies, mini pretzels, sprinkles, and candy eyes (if using) evenly over the melted chocolate. Press gently to ensure they stick to your no-bake Halloween dessert.
- Set the Bark: Refrigerate the baking sheet for 10–15 minutes until the chocolate is fully set. Alternatively, let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Break and Serve: Break the hardened Halloween candy bark into irregular pieces with your hands or a knife. Arrange on a festive platter or package in treat bags for your Halloween party treats.
- Enjoy: Serve your festive candy bark dessert and watch it disappear at your spooky celebration!
