For the Cookies
  • 1 cup Unsalted Butter Adds richness and moisture to the cookie; can substitute with margarine.
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar Sweetness helps cookies crisp on the edges; no substitutions needed.
  • 1 cup Brown Sugar Provides moisture and a deeper caramel flavor; can use light or dark brown sugar depending on preference.
  • 2 large Eggs Binds ingredients and adds structure; substitute with 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce or mashed banana per egg if needed.

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Cream the softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together for 2-3 minutes until light and fluffy.
  3. Incorporate the eggs one at a time and then add vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Combine all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl and whisk together, then gradually add to the wet mixture.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips and candy corn until evenly distributed.
  6. Drop generous spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving 2-3 inches between each mound.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes until the edges are golden brown and the centers remain soft.
