Hurrah for the holidays, Peppermint Bark Oreos are back to make the festive season even merrier. This Christmas-themed Oreo flavor made its debut in 2018 as a limited-edition flavor. Early August this year, rumors about its return made Oreo fans all excited. And rumor has it that the Peppermint Bark Oreos will be hitting shelves starting late October and will be available throughout the Yuletide season. Well, guess what? The time has finally come and the Peppermint Bark Oreos as actually officially back on the shelves.
Instagram snack blogger JunkBanter was one of the first to spot the new Oreo flavor at Walmart. But please settle down before you rush over to the nearest Walmart store. You can also get them on Target. so there’s no need to break a sweat to get one.
For those who didn’t get the chance to try it last year, now is your perfect chance. You don’t have to wait for December to try these chocolate cookies with peppermint-flavored crème filling with crunchy sugar crystals. Truth be told, these cookies might not even last long on the shelves so you might want to stock up before they run out.

The Peppermint Bark Oreos are filled with creme with crushed peppermint candies
Now, to bring up the question. Does it really taste like peppermint bark? Those who have tried it would attest that it tasted like the real thing, with actual crushed peppermint candies to give the crème some crunch. It has a subtle taste of mint that isn’t too overwhelming so it’s more on the sweet side than the minty side.
Celebrate Christmas as early as now and enjoy a wintery twist on our favorite chocolate sandwich cookie. It comes in a resealable 10.7oz pack perfect for snacking, sharing, and holiday parties.
