Halloween Candy Cookies

Ok - I know that this is February and Halloween was MONTHS ago - but I wanted to post this idea that my boys had. After they had gone trick-or-treating, they had HUGE bags full of candy. They came up with the idea of making cookies out of the little chocolate bars that they got.

So I got my favourite Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe and instead of chocolate chips, I added chopped up mini chocolate bars, m&ms and *Canadian* Smarties :)

All Chopped Up!

Finished Cookies

I found out that the chocolate bars with peanut butter, or carmel don't hold up very well. Solid chocolate with nuts work best. They were still really good - and didn't last long with 3 hungry guys.

It also helps to have a really cute helper!
