This patriotic red, white and blue cookie bark is the perfect way to celebrate the 4th of July.
Cookie barkYes, I did it.  One more cookie bark.

I think I now have a full years worth of holiday cookie barks.

I couldn’t let the Fourth of July go by without it’s own version of cookie bark.

I love the Fourth of July. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that my ancestors came over on the Mayflower and I have relatives that fought in the Revolution War but I love America!!

We usually spend the Fourth of July at the Oregon Coast with a bonfire and s’mores making on the beach watching the fireworks. During the day there is a BBQ and a good old fashioned, small town 4th of July parade!

What better way to celebrate the Fourth than with some red, white and blue food and treats!?

Another thing I love (I love a lot of things) is the combination of sweet and salty. Last year at Halloween I made some Candy Corn Cookie Bark, a great combo of white chocolate, pretzels, Oreos,and candy corn (another thing I love). I loved it so much I had to make a Christmas version – Reindeer Corn Cookie Bark. I couldn’t wait to try Cupid Corn Cookie Bark on Valentines Day. Then when my neighbor called to tell me she had found Easter candy corn I knew there would be some Bunny Cookie Bark.

Well, to round out the year we needed something for the Fourth of July -Red, White and Blue Cookie Bark. (I’m open to suggestions for a better name)

The best part is how easy it is to make. I used my Silpat on a cookie sheet or you could cover the cookie sheet with parchment paper. Just crush up about a dozen Oreo cookies and several hand fulls of pretzels. I used vanilla melts from the bulk food section of my grocery store or you can buy the Wilton Melts at the craft store (about l lbs worth.)

Melt the chocolate in the microwave and then pour over the top of the broken cookies and pretzels. Sprinkle with M & M’s (or candy corn) and then with red, white and blue sprinkles. (Be aware, a lot more blue M & M’s come in a package than red, about twice as many!)

For more detailed instructions and recipe check out my post on Candy Corn Cookie Bark.

Let the chocolate harden and then break into pieces, place in a pretty container and enjoy.

It makes a great treat for a holiday party or to give as a gift. Get creative and think up your own combination of sweet and savory for some cookie bark. Let me know what you come up with.

Happy Fourth of July!

    Hi there! My name is Brittany and work for a flag company based in Southern California where I handle social media and marketing. I found a pin on pinterest of this recipe and I am going to be sharing this darling recipe across our social media as part of a grassroots campaign we are launching to be more interactive and in touch with our customers — offering them patriotic decorating ideas, crafts, recipes, etc. I will make sure you that any of our posts featuring your content will be properly linked back to you.

    If you have any other flag related crafts of recipes that you’d like me to share, please don’t hesitate to email me the links because I’d love to share them.

    I know this is an old post, but as a blogger myself I know its great to get an influx of traffic to old posts and generate new readers. 🙂

    Thank you so much and I look forward to hearing from you!
