Halloween Candy Cookies

What should you do with all your kids Halloween candy or that left over Halloween candy that you didn’t hand out?!? Make Halloween Candy Cookies of course!

These cookies have everything but the kitchen sink in them and they are so good! You can use any candy you want. Just throw it all in to make these delicious Halloween candy cookies. On top of all the candy you add peanut butter and oatmeal. My on my! Yummy!

I used Twix, Snickers, Reese’s and Sixlets. I grew up on Sixlets and they are my favorite candies. All my friends know this and when they find a good deal they snag them for me. (Check out the dollar store if you like Sixlets). I have great friends that care about my Sixlets addiction. M&M’s work great in the Halloween Candy Cookies. Each bite is different and you won’t regret making these fun cookies. People will come back for second and thirds! Enjoy!
