Sweet Leftovers: 10 Things to Do With Leftover Halloween Candy
This is a guest post from CakeSpy
It's the most wonderful time of the year: that magical day after Halloween where all of the candy is available for dramatically reduced prices, and it's still fairly plentiful in your Halloween bag--that is to say, it's even possible that you've got a surplus. So with that sweet excess in mind, here are some suggestions for what to do with your leftover Halloween candy:
Eat it (duh).
Make candy corn into creamed candy corn.
Put it in a blender with a scoop of ice cream and half a cup of cream: Halloween Leftover Milkshake!
Use it to stuff cupcakes.
Melt it into hot chocolate.
Put it all in a pie crust and make Leftover Halloween Candy Pie.
...or, you could just forget it all and make some Pan de Muerto.
What do you do with all your leftover Halloween candy? Would you try any of these tricks?

Ew no offense but this is nauseating!
1. Eat it.
2. Save it to serve to guests on Sunday movie nights.
3. Take it to work and give it away.
4. Chop up chocolates to make chocolate chip cookies.
5. If there's any I don't like and no one will eat--goes in the trash. No use keeping it!
Creamed candy corn? No thanks. Honestly, I'd just eat the leftovers, and if I didn't like any of them, they'd go in the garbage.
There is no such thing as "leftover" candy.
Are you kidding? This is when I start to buy Halloween candy.
CANDY PIE.
that would be one very sweet pie
Creamed Candy corn? Yuck.
I don't have any Halloween candy, left over or otherwise. If I did, I'd probably just be boring, and eat a piece a day or something.
this is sweet/ wait. melt it into hot chocolate....? how does that work?
