Candy Corn and Peanut-Topped Brownies image

Just right for Halloween! The orange, yellow and white candy corn gives these brownies a decided Halloween flair! What's more, if you use the brown, orange and white candy corn, this recipe is appropriate for Thanksgiving. Use the green red and white candy corn at Christmas time. There is even a candy corn for Easter nowadays. The salted peanuts contrast flavorfully with the sweet cereal and candy corn. You can use the lightly salted dry roasted peanuts, if you wish. Recipe comes from an old grocery check-out stand cookbooklet.
