Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup butter (room temperature)
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup peanut butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons milk
1 egg
1 3/4 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 9 ounce package candy corn

Steps:

  • In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter and both sugars.
  • Add vanilla and continue mixing.
  • Add vanilla, milk, and egg to the bowl and mix again.
  • Add flour and baking soda to the mixture and mix again, just until combined.
  • Reserve 1/2 cup candy and fold in remaining candy corn.
  • Roll dough into balls. I used a tablespoon to scoop it out so the cookies would be approximately the same size.
  • Place dough balls onto a lightly greased cookie sheet, about 2 inches apart.
  • Bake in a 350° oven for 8-11 minutes, until cookies are lightly golden around the edges.
  • Remove cookies. Press a few of the reserved candy corns into the tops of each cookie while they are still hot.
  • Allow to sit on the cookie sheet for 5 more minutes before removing to the cooling rack.

Number Of Ingredients 6

16 Halloween-colored chocolate sandwich cookies, chopped
1 ½ cups broken small pretzels
⅓ cup raisins
1 ½ pounds white chocolate, broken into squares
2 cups candy corn
orange and brown sprinkles

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best results.
  • Be sure to measure your ingredients accurately. This will help ensure that your cookies turn out perfectly.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help create a smooth and even texture in your cookies.
  • Gradually add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  • Stir in the dry ingredients until just combined. Overmixing will result in tough cookies.
  • Fold in the candy corn and peanuts. Be careful not to overmix, as this will cause the candy corn to bleed into the dough.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies at the specified temperature and time. Overbaking will result in dry, crumbly cookies.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before storing them in an airtight container.
