Have you seen the new Gingerbread Oreos yet? I have to admit that I am not a huge gingerbread fan, but I really like these. No scratch that…I love these.
Of course they are Oreos and I have yet to find an Oreo that I didn’t like. As soon as I saw the first package of these posted on Instagram, I headed to our Walmart. I checked the seasonal aisle, I checked the cookie aisle, and I checked the displays in the middle of the aisles. Nothing! I was starting to lose heart that our Walmart had decided to not carry them. As I headed to the checkout lane, there right in front of my eyes was an Oreo display! And one whole side was the Gingerbread ones…it was meant to be:-) In fact, I’m pretty sure I heard angels singing.
The first thing I did when I got home was to try one. Oh boy! They were good! I had to close them up and hide them in the back of the cupboards because I was very tempted to eat more…lots more.
My brain started to think about all the things I could make with them. Maybe some Oreo gooey cake bars? Or some Oreo brownies? Or better yet, maybe some Oreo parfaits?
The more I thought about what to make, the more I realized I wanted to make something simple. Something that wouldn’t hide the gingerbread flavor.
Oreo truffles it is.
But because I was feeling lazy…or maybe it was just plain genius…either way I decided to make it into bark. Ok, ok, it really was the lazy way out. I just wasn’t in the mood to dip that many truffles.
I may never dip another Oreo truffle again.
White chocolate bark layered with Gingerbread Oreo Truffle mixture.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Place the Candiquik in a saucepan over low heat. Stir until melted. Pour half of the Candiquik into a wax paper lined 9x13 pan. Place in refrigerator. Keep the other half warm.
- Crush the whole package of Oreos. Mix in the cream cheese. Spread on top of the chilled Candiquik. Pour the other half of the Candiquik on top and spread out. Top with sprinkles and extra Oreo chunks. Refrigerate to set. Chop into random small pieces. Keep refrigerated.

You are right Sally, it does look like your bark. No wonder I had bark on the brain:-)
I haven’t had these Oreos yet, but I guess I need to find them asap. This recipe looks and sounds fabulous! And I love the idea of making the truffles into bark–while I love truffles, I get tired of dipping that many balls.
This is the perfect solution for me!

I hear you! I have decided this is one treat I will never roll again! Good luck on the Gingerbread Oreo search…I found them at Walmart, but on a special rack.
Yum! Looks delicious! I haven’t seen gingerbread Oreos! Not sure if I would find them in Canada! Another great recipe Jocelyn! Angie xo

This. Is. Perfection! And sheer genius. While I love Oreo truffles, I seriously loathe rolling them and dipping each one individually–hello, time suck. Also, I’m impatient and want them all to be done in like, .58726438 seconds and all look prettyful, haha. This bark solves that solution because it’s such a no-brainer AND it looks gorgeous! Plus, I am LOVING those gingerbread Oreos. Genius!

Thanks Hayley. I agree rolling and dipping is such a time waster!!! Now just spread it in a pan and eat it that much faster:-) Definite no brainer!!!
This IS genius! It looks absolutely amazing. Love this idea!

Awe thanks. It was such a fun and easy thing to do. I honestly think I will do all Oreo truffles this way forever!!!
These look fab! I have yet to try the gingerbread Oreos but this makes me want to run to walmart now! Yum!!
Veronica recently posted..Grandma Vi’s Russian Tea Cakes
Yes, run as fast as you can. These Oreos were so yummy:-)
“You can’t catch me I’m the gingerbread man…” Sorry I had to!! Lol
Veronica recently posted..Grandma Vi’s Russian Tea Cakes
Cute:-) I didn’t think about that when I wrote the post!!!
I need to find those Oreos ASAP. This is genius girlfriend!!!
Aimee @ ShugarySweets recently posted..Lemon Cupcake with Lemon Buttercream
Thanks:-) I can’t believe your Walmart still doesn’t have them! Not cool, so not cool!!!
This has Christmas written all over it. As soon as I get my hands on a package of those Gingerbread Oreos, I’m making this stat. This recipe looks amazing!
Elaine @ Cooking to Perfection recently posted..Stuffed Chicken Meatballs
They are the cutest Christmas treat. And it would be perfect for any truffle flavor:-)
What a great idea! After seeing this, I may never dip another truffle again!
Love the flavors!

I am with you…I’m not sure I ever will either:-)
OMG! For reals Jocelyn. Oreo truffles are like one of my favorite things. But this…wow! Pinning all day.

Holy moly! This sounds amazing! I just bought a pack of these this weekend and I’m in love!! Definitely going to have to try this!

I bought a pack of the Gingerbread Oreos and have been waiting for a recipe to use them in. Found it! Can’t wait to make these. They look so good.
When I was on my shopping trip this weekend I looked everywhere for these Oreos and all I found was the candy cane kind. Maybe those will work too! Hmm?!

My dh looked for the Gingerbread Oreos & couldn’t find them,so he bought
Oreo Golden Sandwich Cookies.What do you think I could add to make them taste like Gingerbread ? Thanks
Hi, Shelia. I found a packet of the Duncan Hines Frosting Creations in gingerbread flavor at Walmart. I think if you added that in with the cream cheese it would be a nice flavor. Let me know how it turns out:-)
So in love with this

Oh my heck!!! I haven’t seen these Oreos yet. I’m totally going on a search!

I keep hearing about these elusive gingerbread Oreo’s that I can’t seem to find anywhere! This is a crisis because I need to make this bark. ASAP.
Nicole @ Lapetitebaker recently posted..Cranberry Bliss Cheesecake Bars
I agree 100% with you…you need this bark:-) Although any Oreo would be fine!!!
I know, bark is SO MUCH EASIER. I know this because I just made Gingerbread Oreo Truffles (but with a twist!) This is gorgeous Jocelyn!
Dorothy @ Crazy for Crust recently posted..Cinnamon Roll Coffee Cake Pie
I’m pretty much sold on the idea of making every single truffle a bark now:-) Rolling and dipping may be a thing of the past!!! I can’t wait to see your “twist”!
I love the flavors of gingerbread and molasses! and with oreos and sprinkles – can’t go wrong!
Averie @ Averie Cooks recently posted..Sugar-Doodle Vanilla Cookies
I agree…you can never go wrong with Oreos and sprinkles!!!
well – I have not yet found the gingerbread oreos – but like you I have never met an oreo I didn’t like
and bark is WAY better than truffles

Oh my goodness, this looks sooooo good! And I love that it’s a twist on truffles – how clever!

Katie recently posted..Twice Baked Sweet Potatoes With Streusel Topping
These look sooo delicious!! I must buy some gingerbread oreos now! Do you think they would be just as good with milk or dark chocolate? Not a huge fan of white, but I think with the gingerbread I may change my mind!
This looks ridiculously amazing!! Holy moley I think I just started drooling. Don’t mind me.
