If you have leftover Halloween chocolate, you NEED to try this recipe. These super soft and chewy chocolate chip cookies are filled with tons of chocolate chips PLUS mini candy bars! They are then topped with coarse sea salt, which honestly takes these over the top! I decided to use the most popular cookie recipe on Sally’s Baking Addiction as the base for these cookies, and they did not disappoint! You can put in whatever your favorites are, but I put in M&Ms, Milky Way, Twix, Snickers and Hershey’s kisses. If you have mini-sized bars you can use them as-is, and if not, you can simply chop up the chocolate bars into bite-sized pieces. If you’re looking for more great seasonal cookie recipes, check out some of my favorites!

Bake the cookies for 12–13 minutes or until the edges are very lightly browned. The centers will look very soft, but the cookies will continue to set as they cool. Cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes.
