Christmas Cookie Bark
14 whole Oreos, broken in pieces. You can use regular, but the holiday ones really add color, as they have the red filling.
1 1/2 C pretzels, I used the small stick ones whole, but you can break them up
1 lb. white chocolate (almond bark)
1 C Christmas corn, the red and green candy corn (you can find it in the Christmas candy section, usually)
Red & Green colored sprinkles
Cover a large cookie sheet with wax paper. Spread broken cookies, pretzels & about 3/4 C of the candy corn onto the wax paper. Place almond bark in a container & microwave for about 1.5 minutes. Stir & then microwave for another 30 seconds until it it melted & smooth...HOWEVER, be very careful as the white chocolate melts & BURNS much easier than chocolate.
Drizzle the melted chocolate over the cookie mixture, spreading with a spatula to spread evenly. Sprinkle remaining candy corn & colored sprinkles over the chocolate while it is still wet. DO NOT let it harden, it dries pretty quickly. Once it is set & firm gently break into small pieces & store in an air tight container....
(I will add pics later today!)

T'was the day after Christmas.....
T'was the day after Christmas and all through the house, all the creatures were hiding.....yes, even the mouse. The stockings were strewn, contents spilling out. No one wanted to help Mom sort it all out..."Please pick up your items and put them away or out with the trash they will go on Monday."
So everyone hurried, to gather their stuff, because they were convinced that Mom had had enough...Dad went to the bedroom to avoid the drama, while the rest of us scurried to get on with the day. Before too long, everything was done, or at least enough to get on with the fun.
They played and they played as I snuck out of sight, Merry Christmas to all and to all a night night!
Hope everyone had a fabulous Christmas and will have a blessed New Year......
