Making Use of Leftover Halloween Candy

We’ve all been there—Halloween has come and gone and the leftover candy (whether from the stash given out to trick-or-treaters or candy that came home with our little trick-or-treaters) is losing its appeal. Wouldn’t it be fun to dress it up a bit?

There is no shortage of ideas for repurposing Halloween candy—scroll social media for the nearly infinite possibilities. A few tried-and-true ideas from our kitchens:

Chop unwrapped leftovers and sprinkle over your next hot fudge sundae.

Toss chopped candy (or keep the pieces whole if small) into snack mixes.

Candy Bar Fudge anyone? If you love peanut butter cups, this one’s for you.

Use melted unwrapped mini candy bars in this mini tart favorite.
Candy corn going stale in that candy dish? Use in our Scarecrow Treats.

Our favorite way to enjoy leftover Halloween candy is in this easy-to-make Halloween Candy Cookie Skillet. The soft cookie base is the perfect foil for the small bits of chocolatey candy mixed in. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream for the perfect warm/cool balance.
