LEFTOVER HALLOWEEN CANDY COOKIES

Leftover Halloween Candy Cookies image

Crispy and chewy! I came up with these out of desperation as we ended up with a lot fewer trick or treaters this year. I used Twix bars, m&ms and pecans. If using candy with peanuts or peanut butter you might want to use peanuts instead of pecans, but pretty much anything goes!

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups flour

1 1/2 cups crisp rice cereal
3 cups oatmeal
1/2 cup sweetened flaked coconut
1 cup chopped nuts (peanuts and pecans)

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Line cookie sheets with parchment or use silpats, as the melted candy is very sticky.

Beat in eggs one at a time until smooth.
Add vanilla.
Mix in baking soda and flour.
Stir in remaining ingredients with a spoon.
Roll dough into walnut sized balls, flatten slightly and place 2 inches apart on lined cookie sheets.
