Instructions

Notes
- The recipe base for this is my Black Cocoa Cookies. Begin there with the base cookie recipe and then return to this tutorial to follow the leftover Halloween candy cookie steps.
- Chocolate Candy. This includes all your chocolates from m&m's, Twix, Butterfingers, Reese's, etc. I recommend chopping them into 1" portions and then refrigerating so they are cold. You do not add them to the cookies until about 2 minutes before the cookies are done, and keeping it cold will help them hold their shape a bit.
- Candy. This recipe is NOT for actual candy, such as candy corn, sour candy, jolly rancher's, etc. That will quickly melt and ruin the bake.
