Perhaps you bought tons of Halloween candy<\/a> for all of those trick-or-treaters that will definitely hike up the five flights of stairs to your apartment door (five bags seems reasonable, right?). Perhaps you\u2019re always amazed to find that almost all of the candy is still there come November 1st, even when you and a friend ate two bags on your own. Or maybe you have kids who collected more candy than they can possibly eat without giving themselves sugar-related meltdowns. Either way, you will have lot of extra fun-sized bars and candy corn and not a lot to do with them.<\/p>\n

So, what can<\/em> one do with bags and bags of leftover Halloween candy? Eating it plain<\/a> is obviously a great option, but even if you have the biggest sweet tooth, things can start to get boring when you\u2019re on your 100th bite-sized Kit Kat. Before you start pawning your candy off on hungry coworkers, consider giving it a new life instead.<\/p>\n

Here are some of our favorite ways to use up leftover candy.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Stir Them Into Your Ice Cream<\/h2>\n

Grab a pint of vanilla ice cream<\/a>\u2014or chocolate, or caramel, or whatever flavor you like\u2014and let it soften for 20 to 30 minutes, until it’s soft enough to stir. Chop up your chocolate bars, peanut butter candy, or Twix bars, and fold it in; store your spooky surprise in a lidded plastic container or a loaf pan and re-freeze. (If you’re feeling lazy, you can always just sprinkle your leftover Halloween candy on top of your ice cream, too. Add a swirl of whipped cream and call it a sundae).<\/p>\n

Blend Them With Your Ice Cream Instead<\/h2>\n

Blizzard, concrete, Friend-Z\u2014no matter what you call it, ice cream swirled with chunks of candy is awesome. To make one at home, just put your candy bars and some softened ice cream in a blender and pulse until the candy is incorporated. Try it with Reese\u2019s pieces, Butterfingers, M&M\u2019s, Heath bars, or Snickers for a frozen treat inspired by the Dairy Queen delight. If you want a thinner milkshake<\/a>, add a splash of milk, too.<\/p>\n
