I always over estimate the amount of candy that I will pass out to trick or treaters on Halloween.  Consequently, I’m always left with packs of candy that I don’t want to eat. 

One way I use up the chocolate is in this cookie recipe.  I bake the cookies and then freeze them for later.  The cookies will keep for several months if they are wrapped properly before being frozen.

1 cup white sugar

1 cup butter

1 tsp vanilla

2 eggs, beaten

Mix the above ingredients together.

2 cups flour

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp baking soda

1 cup mixed Halloween miniature candies

Add wet ingredients to mixed dry ingredients.  Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 12 to 15 minutes.
