About
Halloween is over, and now you face a delicious dilemma: what to do with all the leftover candy bars you collected or didn't give away. With a little kitchen magic, you can transform your favorite chocolate confections into Leftover Halloween Candy Cookie Bars! These crunchy baked goods enhance the chocolaty and nutty tastes of the candy. The molasses of the brown sugar adds smokiness and warmth, and the butter provides that extra layer of richness to make these bars irresistible. Leftover Halloween Candy Cookie Bars might just become a new autumn tradition for when the trick-or-treaters go home.
