Peppermint Bark Homemade Oreo Cookies | Holiday Cookies

Get ready to make some delicious peppermint bark homemade Oreo cookies with this fun holiday baking video. My family loves Oreos and peppermint bark, so I thought why not combine the two together!

Whether you prefer the classic sandwich cookies or dipped in different chocolates, these homemade peppermint bark Oreos bring the festive vibes and the yumminess factor from 0 to 100.
Also, I love how the chocolate wafers aren’t overly sweet, I even saved some on the side to eat plain with my coffee.

Drinking coffee and eating holiday cookies while admiring my mom’s Christmas decorating is one of my favorite Christmas activities because it makes me so happy. To me, it’s about the small things that bring me joy, especially during these difficult 2020 times.

What do you celebrate during the holiday season? Christmas, Hanukkah (if so happy Hanukkah), Kwanza?

*Video Note:
To my subscribers, first off thank you for your support :)
As you may have noticed, this video has little to no voiceover compared to my other videos. I decided to change up the audio by using predominantly the natural sound from the video for more of a vlog-style type video - i.e. capture more “real’ life moments.
Please let me know if you prefer the more au natural flair (i.e. no voiceover), or not?
