I don’t know about you guys, but we are on sugar overload at our house.  Each week I try and bake homemade goodies for the kids to have in their lunches at school throughout the week and this time of year I find myself wondering what to do with leftover Halloween candy.  Do you have a few leftover Halloween candy recipes?   Last night I whipped up our favorite Halloween blondies recipes.  They are one of the easiest and fastest ways to use up a lot of that leftover Halloween candy.  You can make these with your favorite brownie recipe too, but since most of the leftover Halloween candy is chocolate, I decided to go blonde.  You can whip these up in about 35 minutes from start to finish.

WHAT CANDY WORKS BEST IN LEFTOVER HALLOWEEN CANDY BLONDIES?

I think my kids are crazy, because on Halloween night they always eat the suckers, nerds and sour patch kids…what?!  Who’s kids are these anyway? 😉  Lucky for me, our Halloween leftover candy is usually chocolate.  Anything chocolate, caramel and the like works best in these Halloween Candy Blondies.  Candies like Nestle Crunch Bars, Milky Way, Snickers, Almond Joy and Kit Kat Bars etc.  Chop them up into bite size pieces to mix into your batter. I used three snack size packages of M and M’s to sprinkle over the top to add some fun color to these Halloween blondies.
