Top 10 Things You Have to Make with Your Leftover Candy

October 31, 2014 by Jessica Leave a Comment

Admit it–you bought more candy for the trick-or-treaters this year than you really needed to because you didn’t mind having some leftovers around the house. Am I right? Is it just me?

Whether you perpetually sneak pieces of candy out of your child’s Halloween bag or you like to take advantage of the clearance aisles at department stores the day after, I bet you’ve got plenty of chocolate and other sweets lying around the house, calling your name every time you pass by the kitchen. Instead of just staying in a constant snacking mode, however, it’s time you looked at this as an opportunity to get a little creative with your cooking. And I’ve got a few ideas to get you started.

Candy Bar Brownie Trifle

Candy Bar Cheesecake

Candy Bar Cake

Halloween Candy Bars

 

Halloween Candy Bars: Maybe your favorite part about having leftover candy around is that you can throw a few pieces into your pocket and snack on the go. Well, the best part about these cookie bars is that you can cut up a slice, throw it into a plastic baggie, and you’re good to go!

Candy Bar Pie

 

Candy Bar Pie: With a rich chocolate spread and a candy bar filling, this pie is almost too good to be true.

And if those aren’t enough, check out our favorite leftover candy recipes from around the web!
