Limited Edition Candy Corn Kisses and Cookie Recipe
The Candy Corn Kisses are one of three Limited Edition Kiss flavors available this fall. Yesterday, I wrote about trying the Pumpkin Spice ones. Today I set about getting ready to review the Candy Corn ones, but then realized I did not really have much to say just about trying the Candy Corn ones, so I decided to also try out the Kisses Candy Corn Autumn Cookies recipe on the back of the bag.
First, the Candy Corn Kisses taste pretty good in my opinion, which is really saying something because Candy Corn is on my list of candy I hate. My dad thinks they taste the same, but the texture is what makes it seem so different. As for the blogs I read saying these taste like buttered popcorn, well, I just do not taste them that way except they do have a little bit of a saltiness to them. Overall on there own I like them, although they are not that spectacular of a flavor that I will miss when they are not available.
As for the cookie recipe, that turned out really good. The recipe calls for 66 Candy Corn Kisses, but if you read the probable amount in the bag there is only 72. Of course, I realized the recipe after eating about 10 of the Kisses. Thus I just did a half recipe and ended up only needing 19 kisses because I only ended up with 11 cookies instead of the expected 24. The cookie base is a peanut butter oatmeal cookie, which is good on its own. After they cool you drizzle melted Candy Corn kisses on top and then put an unwrapped on on top. The cookies are pretty good tasting even though I substituted regular peanut butter for the called for Reeses peanut butter. They would have been better just leaving them without the added Candy Corn kisses, though. However, they do look very festive.
