7 Ways to Use Leftover Halloween Candy

You don't have to eat all of your Halloween candy, you can donate it, get creative, sell it back and more!

I have so much candy, it's coming out of my ears! The question is, what do we do with all of this candy?

The obvious answer is eat it, duh. But let's face it, my hips don't need anymore than they already have.

Here are a few ways you can put all of your extra Halloween candy to good use.

1. Donate your candy to Operation Gratitude.

With Operation Gratitude, you can donate candy to troops. Ship your extra candy before November 15th deadline and your tasty treats will be shipped in care packages to troops around the world.

2. Sell your candy back.

Plenty of dentists are buying back candy. To find a dentist near you, search this handy database. I've already found dentists in Freeport, Sycamore and Janesville that are buying back candy.

3. Freeze it!

Yes, you can absolutely freeze your Halloween candy. Save it for milk shakes, birthday parties, or as sweet treats inside cookies throughout the year.

4. Make a tasty snack.

Take all of those little bags of M&Ms and mix them with dry cereal, pretzels and peanuts for a sweet and salty trail mix.

5. Make a Mocha.

All mocha is, is coffee and chocolate. Drop a few squares into your morning coffee for a quick treat.

6. Flavor your Vodka.

Grab a bottle and toss in some candy to soak over night. The next day you will have the flavored vodka of your choice.

7. Bring it to the office.

Sandy loves chocolate. Bring her and all of your co-workers sweet treats and get them out of your cabinets.
