While Halloween may still be many months away, the candy company Brach's is already preparing for the spooky holiday with a brand new treat: Cookie Candy Corn. By combining a popular dessert with the seasonal tri-colored candy, Brach's aims to offer something wholly unique for the Halloween season.
Brach's Cookie Candy Corn is a brand new treat available exclusively from Dollar General. The ultra-sweet confection consists of candy corn pieces in four distinct cookie flavors: Chocolate Chip, Oatmeal, Cookies 'n Cream and Butter Cookie. Because of the unique flavors, the candy pieces are a medley of browns and beige hues, instead of the normal yellow, orange and white stripes.
While candy corn may be an acquired taste, this new batch of cookie-flavors confections could convert even the stanchest critics.
