Rainbow Sugar Cookie Bark made with refrigerated sugar cookie dough and candy – get ready to taste the rainbow!
So apparently we’re not done with rainbows in our house yet…The other night I was lying in bed thinking of recipes and I envisioned this super playful and fun rainbow bark and I knew I had to make it! How cool would it be to eat candy that looked like it was broken off from a rainbow?
There are so many different candies that you could use for this bark but I went with Skittles and Starburst Jelly Beans because they had all the different colors and shades I was looking for. I also picked up some star sprinkles in the dollar section at Target.
Bryce is at Grandma and Grandpa’s for a few days so I put Reece to work sorting…seriously, this is Reece’s dream job. It worked out great for me because he also got in a snack 😉 {I don’t know why he doesn’t have a shirt on…it was all of 70 degrees…}
Once Reece was done sorting I put each color into a separate container to make things easier…
I had originally planned on just using Vanilla CandiQuik but got inspired by Dorothy’s Sugar Cookie Bark where she used a sugar cookie pouch mix. It looked phenomenal but I knew my boys would love it if all this candy was sitting on a giant sugar cookie so I actually rolled out some refrigerated dough and baked it up. You should have seen Reece’s eyes when I pulled that giant cookie out of the oven!
To make sure I didn’t stress myself out, I heated up the CandiQuik in two batches so I’d have plenty of time to lay out the candy before it set up. This made it super easy! I would do a couple rows at a time and then add some more…
I ended up doing two “rainbows”. Here’s what it looked like with all the rows on:
Pretty spectacular right? Reece just kept asking “So we really get to eat this?” – I think he thought I’d finally lost it! Next all you need to do is let the CandiQuik set up and then break it into pieces – that may have been the most fun! We tried to get multiple colors onto each piece so they really looked like pieces of a rainbow.
Pretty pretty isn’t it?
