11 Sweet Recipes to Make With Leftover Halloween Candy

While originally made with pastel M&M's for Easter, this recipe for our M&M's brownies is just as perfect for using up leftover Halloween candy! Gooey chocolate brownies are topped with a sweet and creamy chocolate buttercream frosting then sprinkled with M&M's for what may just be the best frosted brownie recipes for the chocolate lovers in the crowd.

If you haven't caught on yet - pretty much you should use that leftover Halloween candy to make cookies in one form or another! These oatmeal peanut butter cookies are one my personal favorite ways to make the most of your Reese's Pieces stash, which may or may not happen to be my personal favorite Halloween candy. A batch of these and you'll have one very happy family!

These Cookie Monster brownies are honestly almost too fun for words. Plus it's an incredibly simple recipe with the utmost in cuteness that little hands can help make! One part brownie and one part cookie, you can mix and match different leftover Halloween candies with a box brownie mix to create a sweet treat you'll want to make time and time again.

I've said it before, but I'll surely say it again - I love making cookie bars! The ease of mixing the dough and baking it all at once in a baking pan is so much less time consuming than baking tray after tray of cookies, plus I love the thickness of a bar versus a standard cookie. These Monster cookie bars are another great option for using up leftover M&M's or Reese's Pieces!

Everybody who is anybody loves a good cookie pizza! Our chocolate peanut butter cookie pizza recipe is topped with miniature M&M's but it can easily be adapted to use whatever leftover Halloween candy you have on hand. Anything from M&M's, Reese's Pieces, chunks of Snickers, Butterfinger bars, Heath bars or even peanut butter cups will work brilliantly!
