20 Desserts To Make With Halloween Candy

Before we dive into desserts you can make with Halloween candy, it is time to give credit where credit is due — trick-or-treating. One thing that Halloween-obsessed people know to be true is that trick-or-treating never gets old. What's that, you say? You are a twentysomething standing at a stranger's door next to six-year-old Buzz Lightyear and four-year-old Elsa? Worry not! Just pretend like your little sister is too sick to trick-or-treat, and you are going for her. They will be none the wiser.

OK, so I don't really recommend you go door-to-door and steal candy from children — but, if you want to buy a jumbo family-size bag of candy and eat it all by yourself this Halloween? I fully support your decision. Then again, sometimes you get halfway through that bag and realize, "WELP, this was a terrible idea. I'm sick of eating this candy by itself. I need a new way to satisfy my sweet tooth." I see your dilemma, and I am raising you these 20 desserts to make using your Halloween candy... because we elves have to stick to the four main food groups: candy, candy canes, candy corn, and syrup. Ready for one super sweet Halloween? Yeah, I bet you are.
