Halloween – I love it and hate it. I love the decorations, the treats, the costumes and all of the wonderful candy! However, I hate all of that wonderfully delicious leftover candy….especially when the kids are at school and I am having a sugar craving and that leftover candy is literally staring me in the face. That is why I adore this yummy treat that my friend, Erica, baked with me – Leftover Halloween Candy and Cookie Skillet.
What’s great about this treat is EVERYTHING! Two types of cookies and candy smooshed together to make one delicious treat. My youngest son told me today that this was the best thing I have ever made!!! Now that is a compliment! One of the best things is that you can use your own cookie recipes or if you want to make it REALLY easy, just use store bought cookie dough (shhhhhh….I won’t tell!!)
