If...then

If you decide to make this recipe: Glowing Jack-o-Lantern Cookies. And if your primary workspace is the counter over your dishwasher. Then you might not want to put the bag of crushed candy on that counter while you do the rest of the recipe.

Because the heat from the running dishwasher might cause the candy to melt into one giant lump, which is somehow much more difficult to smash up than the original candies. And if you're doing all this in the hour before you have to go work, the stubborn candy blob might make you late.

Theoretically, I mean.
