- 1 cup yellow chocolate chips
- 1 cup orange chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- Microwave-safe bowls
- Mixing spoons
- Parchment paper
- Cookie sheet
Step-by-Step Instructions:
1. Prepare the Candy Corn
Unwrap the candy corn and separate the colors into three piles: yellow, orange, and white. Set them aside in separate bowls.
2. Melt the White Chocolate
Place the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
3. Create the Yellow Layer
Pour the melted white chocolate into a bowl with the yellow candy corn. Stir until the candy corn is evenly coated.
4. Spread the Yellow Layer
Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Pour the yellow candy corn mixture onto the prepared cookie sheet and spread it out into a thin layer.
5. Repeat for Orange and White Layers
Follow steps 2-4 for the orange and white candy corn layers. Spread the melted chocolate over the yellow layer and then add the orange candy corn. Repeat with the melted white chocolate and white candy corn.
6. Refrigerate
Place the cookie sheet in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or until the candy corn layers are set.
7. Break and Enjoy
Once the candy corn layers are set, break them into pieces and enjoy your festive candy corn bowl.
Tips for Success:
- Use high-quality chocolate chips for the best flavor.
- Do not overheat the chocolate, as it can burn.
- If the chocolate is too thick, add a little more vegetable oil.

- Store the candy corn bowl in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Variations:
- Add a layer of chocolate chips to the bottom of the bowl for extra sweetness.
