ULTIMATE CANDY BAR COOKIES
I created these after Halloween, when I had way too much candy left over. You can make them with any mini chocolate candy, but if you use peanut butter cups, throw them in the freezer just before unwrapping so the chocolate won't stick to the paper. -Tara John, Plymouth, Minnesota
