Circus Animal Cookie Bark

I thought about calling these “Not Your Mother’s” Cookie Bark… get it? (Mother’s® Cookies?) No?

After making my White Chocolate Cookie Truffles last week, I was left with half a box of vanilla wafer cookies and half a package of vanilla almond bark.  As I was skimming for more ingredients I saw a bag of Circus Animal Cookies, and the light bulb went off.

I think those cookies are universally nostalgic.  Growing up we always had homemade cookies around the house… so much so that it almost felt like a treat to eat these “store bought” cookies.

Who doesn’t love a no bake recipe?  Even better that there are only three ingredients!  I’m not going to give measurements, because you really have to judge for yourself how much you want to make.
