Clean and dry all the molds.
Melt the red, white, and half of the green melting chocolate each in the microwave, each in their own microwave safe bowls. One at a time melt the chocolate in 30 second increments, stirring in between until the chocolate is liquid.
Put each color in its own piping bag, tie the end and cut a small hole on the tip.
Pipe the melting chocolate into the book and letter portions into the molds. Place the molds in the freezer for 6-8 minutes to help them solidify.
Remove the chocolate items and repeat this step until you have chocolate books and letters in every color and enough to spread around the bark.
Next lay a sheet of parchment paper on a baking sheet or flat tray.
Melt the Brown chocolate following the directions above and pour it over the sheet of parchment paper. Use a spatula to spread the chocolate across the sheet of parchment.
Quickly sprinkle the mini candy coated chocolates all over the melted brown chocolate. Next the add the cookies, break some of them to add more crunch and then add the small chocolate pieces (books, letters& etc).
Place the bark in the freezer for 5-8 minutes to solidify.
Using clean hands break the bark into large pieces.
Place the left over round green chocolate melts on each piece of bark.
On each piece of bark, lay 3 green chocolate melts closely together and add one green melt above the melt that’s at the end of the line. This will be the worms body.
Remelt the green chocolate in the piping bag for 15-30 seconds and use it glue the round melts to the bark.
Next use the same melted chocolate to add the eyes to each worm.
Optional Step: If you have a edible marker add a small curved line under the eyes to create a smile on each worm.
Serve and Enjoy!
This bark can be stored in air tight container in a cool dry place for 2-3 days.
I prefer to melt the chocolate one at a time because I have a limited number of molds. If you have multiple molds, you can melt more than one chocolate at a time.
These molds have a lot of different items on them so you can be creative and add as many different items to your bark as you like.
Be sure to add the chocolate books and letters close to last, just in case you have to reheat the bark. You don’t want the chocolate books and letters melting when you do it.
