Dulces De Halloween: Cuban Lunch Candy Bar

Halloween weekend is officially upon us! Along with costumes and pumpkin carvings comes our favorite part of the holiday, the sweets. After years of raiding candy bowls for the best pre-packaged and mass produced treats, this year we’re making our own candy to bring to the Halloween parties.

This recipe was selected for incorporating some of our favorite ingredients – chocolate, honey, peanut butter, butterscotch and POTATO CHIPS into one amazing goody. Enjoy and let us know what you think!
