Loaded Leprechaun Minty Mint Bark
Printable recipe
Yield: 1-1½ lb. candy
1 pkg (16 oz.) vanilla CandiQuick
½ tsp. mint extract (NOT peppermint)
1 cup mint M&M’s, coarsely chopped
10-12 mint OREO’s, coarsely chopped
Rainbow colored sprinkles, if desired
Line a baking sheet with waxed paper and set aside.
Melt CandiQuick according to package directions. Add the mint extract and stir until combined. Spread the melted CandiQuick evenly and thinly on the waxed paper with a spatula. Top with the M&M’s, Oreo’s and rainbow sprinkles. Using the back of a spoon, a spatula or your hand, carefully press the candy, cookies and sprinkles into the bark so they adhere to it. Allow to cool completely.
Once cooled and the candy re-hardens, break into pieces.

Good Morning Jamie, Now this Mint Bark is a real treat for me and I am thrilled to learn how to make it…. I shall tell you why.
Each Christmas, our friends who live near New York always sends us a tin of Mint Bark, as a gift, and each Christmas we cannot wait to tuck in to this delicious chocolate. Now that I have the recipe I can also enjoy Mint Bark throughout the year….my husband will be thrilled to pieces as well.
Thank you for the recipe, I can't wait to try it.
Best Wishes to you,
Daphne
