There are so many fun and tasty things about Halloween! Eating candy is just half of the fun. 🙂 When you can take the candy and transform it into something new it’s even better. Here are a few tips and ideas to get you started:

  • Add the chopped candy to the cookies. Use your favorite cookie recipe and add chopped candy. You could easily add chopped candy bars, M&Ms, or even candy corn.
  • Don’t forget to mix some chocolate candies in your brownies. Whip up a batch of brownies and add in some of your favorite Halloween candies.
  • Make a fruit kabob for the kiddos and add some candy bars. Apples, strawberries, and chocolate go beautifully together! Plus, this encourages some healthy eating as well as enjoying the sweets too.
  • Make a trail mix! Throw some cereal, pretzels, candy, and nuts together in a bowl or large ziplock bag. Then you will have a yummy snack anytime you need one. It will give you some salty and sweetness too.

      Lucky you! We were expecting lots of kids but the weather was bad last night – cold and rainy so we had maybe 20 kids. I have tons of candy leftover! I bought candy I don’t like so I wouldn’t be tempted to eat it!

    Very fun ideas! I have got to get the candy out of my house. My solution: send it to school with Bob. He’s going to set it out for his students when they come to class Monday night. Yay!

      Yep, our leftover candy is going with my husband to work next week also! I didn’t buy any chocolate because I knew I would eat it! So I bought things I wouldn’t eat like twizzlers and other chewy things (I’m always afraid they’re going to pull a filling out or something 🙂 )!

    Such creative ideas, but sadly I won’t be using any of them :(. We don’t have any leftover candy because we didn’t buy any. That’s what happens when you live in the woods!

    These make me WISH that I had leftover candy lol! 🙂 This year I bought bags of chips for the treaters and any leftovers went immediately to my son’s house so that I wouldn’t start eating them!

    Candy hand pies…now I have to go check that one out just for fun! 🙂
