With the kids going back to school, now is a great time to try out something new. We like to eat candy, but we also like to cook. So we’ve combined the two in this collection of the best candy based recipes from around the web.
A lot of these recipes are designed to help you use up your leftover candy, but at Sweet Services we know there’s no such thing as leftover candy, there’s just candy you haven’t eaten yet. Buy bulk candy so you can cook with candy and eat it too.
Candy Caramel Corn
This inexpensive treat combines bulk candy, caramel, and popcorn to create a sweet snack for the fall holidays or any day. We recommend Rolo’s and M&M’s, but you can get creative by adding chunks of Heath Candy Bar or Snickers. Choose M&M colors to match your kid’s school colors or to match a party theme.
Chocolate Caramel Candy Bars
Layers of Rolo’s candy and Hershey Bars complemented by the salty crunch of club crackers make this easy and tasty treat from Happiness is Homemade. Kids will enjoy helping you assemble the layers and everyone will love eating the final product.
They’re like s’mores with caramel, so even though summer is over, you can still enjoy the best part of that campfire experience.
M&M Cookies
M&M Cookies are a classic after school snack, and this chewy recipe is sure to impress. You can customize them by picking M&M’s in your favorite colors. It’s a good thing they take only 10 minutes to bake, you won’t be able to wait to eat them. Just make sure you give them time to cool before you dig in.
Candy Bark
If variety is the spice of life, then this candy bark from the Food Network is the whole spice rack. All you need is 21 ounces of white, milk, or dark chocolate, vegetable oil and about two cups of your favorite candy.
The best part is, almost any candy will work. Get creative. Get colorful. Get eating. Pick your favorite candy or use up the leftover Halloween candy just in time to buy more.
Chocolate Pretzels
These chocolate pretzels aren’t just a snack, they’re also a fun family activity. When the kids get home from school, let them help you build these salty sweet treats from Allrecipes.com. With just three ingredients: Pretzels, Hershey’s Kisses and M&M’s, they’re easy to make and just as easy to eat.
Candy Bar Cheesecake Brownies
How do you make brownies better? You add candy of course. These candy-filled brownies from Taste of Home are topped with candy filled cream cheese for two times the candy flavor. They’re so good, you might have to make two pans, one for you and one for the kids. Or keep both for you. Don’t worry, we won’t tell.
Don’t forget to buy your Mini Candybars in bulk to get more for less.
More than a snack, these candy recipes are a fun activity for the whole family. So jazz up your kids’ after schools snacks with M&M’s, sweeten up your popcorn with Rolo’s, and flavor blast your brownies with pieces of candy bar.
