Happy Halloween! It's one of my favorite nights of the year when I get to hand out candy to trick-or-treaters and see all the adorable costumes. But if you're anything like me and you tend to overprepare, then you may have bought a bag (or two) more of fun-size candy bars than you needed. While I've always thought having too much is better than running out and having to turn neighborhood kids away, it does create a bit of an issue when I still have a large bowl of candy left at the end of the night, especially once my kids come home with their own trick-or-treating loot.
That's why I'm sharing some of my favorite ways to use up leftover candy. Instead of having overflowing candy dishes around your house for the next few weeks, try one of these recipes to make the candy into a delicious and shareable dessert recipe. If you have way too much candy, you can always freeze some of it to use in a few weeks when you aren't so overwhelmed by leftovers.
