I'd try layering it: melted chocolate, scattered worms, then crushed oreos dusted heavily on top. (Pressing the oreo crumbs down, while candy is still warm.) That way, the worms look as if they are coming out of the mud & dirt. You could taste the oreo more. And the worm colors would show just enough for fun presentation. I could see kids going crazy for this! Love your channel! Always a good time seeing your faces & ideas. ❤

I'm a part time cake decorator I recommend a round two. For sure!! This is such a fun idea being that it's well remembered and still eaten today... I say Use half the worms and still blend the oreos but instead sift them after blending keep the excess dust (set aside) use the chunks of oreo in the mixture of chocolate & worms. At the end add the left over worms and dust the top with the sifted oreo dust. (The dust won't go stale this is how i dust cookies an cream cupcakes) & This will help enhance the oreo flavor 😋 ♥️ I really hope this one gets perfected, such a nostalgia to this one! ❤ 🐛🪱 🍫 🫕

You should have another couple sleeves of Oreo's crushed and on standby to cover the top with before the chocolate sets fully. Then you can have the fresh Oreo chunks still, and it provides a nice visual to the top of the bark. You could maybe even have chopped up worms ready to sprinkle on top!

You need to make spiders and flies bark. You need fried noodles plain ones no flavour sachets. Not sure what brands are available in the USA (in Australia we have Changs), Crunchy peanut butter and mini marshmallows and melted chocolate, Milk, Dark or White. You just mix all ingredients together. Some do them in drops from a spoon I do mine on a cookie sheet then slice it. I'm sure you would like it.
