Often times, after Halloween, we're all left with tubs of extra halloween candy. Real Simple has some great ideas for using up that old candy in new ways, and a use for your pumpkins, too.
1. Melt chocolate bars for chocolate-covered strawberries, or use peppermint patties or snickers for brownies (put candy in between 2 layers of mix).
2. Chop up leftover candy or candy corn and use in place of chocolate chips in cookies.
3. Make a seasonal centerpiece by placing a jar with water and a flower arrangement inside a hollowed out pumpkin.
4. Pumpkin Soup or Pumpkin Leek Soup from the stuff you scooped out of all the jack-o-lanterns.
The Real Simple website has lots of great ideas.
