- Melt the Candy Corn:
- Microwave the candy corn at 1/2 power in 30-second bursts.
- Stir after each cycle until completely melted. This typically takes around 5 minutes.

- Line a 9x13 pan with wax paper.
- Spread the melted candy corn and peanut butter mixture evenly in the prepared pan.
- Cool to Room Temperature:
- Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature. This will help it set.
- Cut into Pieces:
- Once cooled, cut the mixture into individual pieces. The 9x13 pan provides a guideline for the size.
- Dip in Chocolate:
- Melt chocolate for dipping according to your preferred method.
- Dip each cut piece into the melted chocolate, ensuring even coating.
