How to make Halloween Cookie Bars
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line an 8×8 baking pan with parchment paper and set aside.
Break up the cookie dough and add to a medium bowl. Mix in the chopped oreos and M&Ms.
Spread the dough in an even layer in the prepared baking pan. Cook for 20-25 minutes or until the edges have set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the cookie to cool for 10 minutes in the pan before transferring to a wire rack to finish cooling.
Once the cookie has completely cooled, melt the candy melts according to the package directions. Add each separate color of candy melts to a small Ziploc bag. Cut the corner off the bag to create a piping bag.
Using a back and forth motion drizzle the candy melts over the cookie. While the candy melts are still wet, apply the candy eyes. Set aside for about 15 minutes. to allow the candy melts to set.
Cut the cookie into 16 pieces and enjoy.

Allow the cookie dough to sit out at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before breaking it up. It will make it easier to break up and mix in the Oreos and M&Ms.
Regular Oreos can be used in place of mint Oreos.
Try replacing the M&M’s with Reese’s pieces for a peanut butter twist.
