Leftover Halloween Cake Mix CookiesTrick or treating was a big success. Kora and Logan received so much candy there’s no way they’ll ever eat it all.

So I decided to be a little creative and chopped up a variety of candy bars and mixed them into a cookie cake recipe. Wow! This turned out amazing and won’t last long. In fact, we are all having a harder time staying away from this than the candy!

  3. What a fabulous idea! I am a fan of using up all that candy. If it’s in the house, I eat it! I can totally bring these in for my students!

  7. I bought 4 bags of chocolate candy bars and didn’t have but a handful of trick or treaters once I got home. I might just have to make a cookie cake too!

  9. Think I’ll freeze my leftover candy and do just that and bring the treats with me when I go to my brother’s on Christmas morning. Thanks for the great idea.

  13. Oh my, look at all that loot!! They must have had super costumes and were really sweet – well I know they are super sweet for a fact!

    What great idea for you to make with some of their candy, it sounds really delicious. Too bad I don’t have any kids to go TorT for me and I am all out of the candy that I bought to hand out. I made 200 baggies and was all out by 7:40p.m.
