Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup unsalted butter, cold
- ½ cup sugar
- Pinch of salt
- 1 tablespoon cold water
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Assorted chopped leftover candy (e.g., Snickers, Twix, Reese’s)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in cold butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add cold water and mix until a dough forms. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
