Last night I was having a hard time deciding what to do with a 5-gallon bucket of Halloween candy.  We can only eat so much of it, I could send it to work with the hubs, donate it to the school, etc.  Then I had one of my better ideas… sort through it for the upcoming holidays!  Here’s a quick brainstorm…

cookie mix-ins

layered cookie bars

crumbled-up for toppings on pudding, ice-cream, cupcakes

crushed for a pie crust

gingerbread houses

mix-ins for homemade fudge

What are some of your ideas to recycle the Halloween candy stash?

    My mom used to save leftover Halloween candy and put it in the Christmas stockings. Doesn’t work with anything that has a Halloween wrapper, but it looks like your stuff is pretty generic.
