Candy Corn Cookie Pizza

Candy Corn Cookie Pizza

Candy Corn Cookie Pizza is a delightful treat that can be made any time during the fall season.  Candy corn starts showing up in the stores en masse about September, and that’s when I start to crave my favorite recipes that call for it.  I often make Candy Corn Cookie Pizza around Halloween, but any time those pumpkins are out, go for it!

Candy Corn Cookie Pizza

Using packaged sugar cookie dough as the base, simply bake in a pizza pan, smooth on a layer of peanut butter, then add candy corn and raisins.  Not too un-healthy, right?   In this photo, I used crunchy peanut butter, but when I use creamy peanut butter, I add a sprinkling of salted peanuts to give the cookie pizza a little crunch.  The recipe calls for store-bought frosting, but I just mix up about 1/4 cup of powdered sugar thinned with a little water to make a glaze, and it’s perfect.

Everyone loves pizza–cheesy, meaty, fruity or cookie–and Candy Corn Cookie Pizza will be a hit at your house, too!
