    My house smells amazing now lol. I’m not a pumpkin spice fan but this is not overwhelming and is very tasty. I think it will be the hit of the Halloween party!

    Can’t wait to make this for our resident party this weekend. I’m actually making another recipe as well. Thank you for such easy and wonderful recipes!

    Although I went to six grocery stores searching for ingredients, it was worth the hunt. I never did find the Booterscotch M & M’s so I substituted the dark chocolate variety. It’s cooling right now and we are excited to munch on the mix!
