Lots of new options this holiday season from the folks at Nestle Toll House. (Gingerbread and Peppermint Cocoa spotted by Tommy at Hannaford. Snow Day spotted by Robbie at H-E-B.)

Not a comment on these cookies, but a heads-up for all you Butterfinger fans. The basic (and ubiquitous) Candy Corn that goes on sale right after Halloween for a dime a package can be used to make the Butterfinger crispy insides, You simply microwave the candy corn on a low setting, and then when it’s melted add creamy Jif or Skippy peanut butter. Once slightly cooled, spread the mixture into a glass or Pyrex flat dish and slice into rectangular pieces. Then freeze until cool. Enjoy!
Well a recipe I never expected that nor had I heard of a recipe featuring melted candy corn. It sounds interesting. Maybe dip the bars into a can of chocolate frosting. Or syrup.
…How is it crispy though? Sounds like you would end up with just a peanut butter fudge.
The final product is very crispy, flaky, and yum-my – like a Butterfinger bar. If you look at the ingredients listed on the Butterfinger (without including the chocolate coating) are almost identical to the ingredients of the orange/white/yellow candy corn, the missing ingredient is peanut butter. Heck, for 10-25 cents for the candy corn and the half cup of peanut butter, it’s worth trying and surprisingly good.
Hmm. I’m intrigued; you don’t add baking soda or anything to achieve aeration?
Nope. You don’t add anything but the two ingredients of microwave-melted candy corn and smooth (not ‘natural’) Jif or Skippy peanut butter.
I have been tempted to make this for years. Here’s a link to the recipe for anyone interested:

Would you be able to provide some rough estimates? Like how much ratio of candy corn to peanut butter would you recommend? Really intriguing idea!
There are a bunch of recipes on line if ya google it.
See above. Someone posted the link to the recipe.
