Mmmm. Today’s dessert is perfect for fall and Halloween. Are you a candy corn fan? We took a poll on Facebook once, most didn’t like it. That’s okay!-this yummy treat is all cheesecake with the pretty fall colors of candy corn, the best of both worlds, right? We love this easy candy corn cheesecake recipe and we love to put it in mason jars for quick fall neighbor gifts or to give to the kids as a Halloween snack! How cute would these be in mini jars for their annual Halloween school party treat or fall class party dessert idea?
