The Tastiest Halloween Toffee Bark

Festive recipes are some of my favorites and this one so good. Chocolate bark is perfect for any Halloween party and get together. Just simply adding decorative sprinkles makes all the difference!

This recipe is one better than basic candy bark – it’s toffee bark! It is just like caramel, but better! It’s easy to make and decorated for Halloween with sprinkles and candy eyes. My daughter loved this so much she couldn’t get enough!

Ingredients Needed

  • Graham Cracker Sheets: You will be using multiple full perforated sheets. You can also substitute Ritz crackers if you prefer.
  • Unsalted Butter: Butter and sugar is what makes the toffee. I prefer using unsalted butter.
  • Brown Sugar: Remember that brown sugar needs to always be packed
  • Chocolate Chips: These turn the toffee into bark – only use semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips (or bittersweet) but not white chocolate (see recipe note).
  • Halloween Sprinkles: Any spooky colors will do!

How to make Halloween Bark

  • Line a 10×15-inch pan (jelly roll pan or cookie sheet with sides) with foil and spray well with cooking spray. Lay the graham crackers in a single layer in the pan, breaking a few to fill in the edges and gaps as much as possible.
  • Melt butter in a saucepan then add brown sugar and water. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Place a candy thermometer in the pan and do not stir. Let the mixture cook until it reaches 255ºF then pour over cookies and spread carefully to cover all the crackers. Bake for 5 minutes.
  • Remove the pan from the oven and sprinkle with the chocolate chips.
  • Bake an additional 2 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and, using an offset spatula, carefully spread the chocolate chips evenly over the toffee.
  • Sprinkle your Halloween sprinkles and/or candies over the chocolate. Let cool to room temperature, then chill to set. Break into pieces and serve.

Expert Tips

  • Stir occasionally until the mixture comes to a boil. Once it starts to boil do not stir. 
  • A candy thermometer is a must for this recipe.
  • Have everything ready to go when you begin; once your toffee starts to cook you don’t want to leave it alone.

FAQs

How long does toffee last?

It can last a few weeks in an airtight container in the fridge!

Can I use white chocolate?

You can, but don’t add them like the recipe states. Instead, bake the toffee for an additional 2 minutes and melt the white chocolate in the microwave, then spread over the toffee.

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350ºF. Line a 10×15” pan (jelly roll or cookie sheet with sides) with foil and spray well with cooking spray. Lay the graham crackers in a single layer in the pan, breaking a few to fill in the edges and gaps as much as possible.
  • Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Turn to medium-low and add brown sugar and water. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Once it boils, place the candy thermometer in the pan and do not stir. Let the mixture cook until it reaches 255ºF on a candy thermometer, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in vanilla extract. Immediately pour over cookies and spread carefully to cover all the crackers. Bake for 5 minutes.
  • Remove the pan from the oven and sprinkle with the chocolate chips. Bake an additional 2 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and, using an offset spatula, carefully spread the chocolate chips evenly over the toffee (they will have melted in the oven but still held their shape). Sprinkle your Halloween sprinkles and/or candies over the chocolate. Let cool to room temperature, then chill to set. Break into pieces and serve.

Recipe Notes

  • Using a candy thermometer is so important so you don’t over cook your toffee
  • You can use salted butter if needed, but I prefer unsalted
  • If you prefer to use white chocolate chips, don’t add them like it states. Instead, bake the toffee an additional 2 minutes and melt the white chocolate in the microwave, then spread over the toffee.

  1. We always make pumpkin muffins for all the neighbors on our cul-de-sac every Halloween morning, but I think this year we’ll switch to this! ย The bark is a wonderful idea! ย Some of my favorite sweets are graham crackers, dark chocolate and toffe, and now it’s in one cute package!

  2. I am loving those little bone sprinkles! I have ones that are skulls! My husband doesn’t read my blog, but he definitely eats all the sweet treats I make.ย 
    This bark looks amazing! What a fun treat ๐Ÿ™‚

  3. Oh my gosh!! That makes me feel so bad that he didn’t get a piece of toffee at your party!! I only had one, but I wish I would’ve known. I’d have saved it for him! Poor guy. And then he had to be tempted by an entire recipe of it made especially for him… I don’t know whether that’s super sweet of you or pure torture! ๐Ÿ˜‰ ๐Ÿ˜‰

  4. This… just sounds riDUNKulous my friend. ย And super cute too. ย Pinned, of course.
