Use up your leftover Halloween candy and make my easy recipe for White Chocolate Halloween Candy Bark for your family and friends.
What do you do with the bags and bags of leftover candy your children get after a night full of trick or treating? Of course, you could hide in a closet and eat it all, or you could whip up a batch of white chocolate Halloween candy bark. It’s easy to make and transforms your plain old Halloween candy into something a little more. Who knows, this could even be your new after-Halloween tradition. Make a batch just before you have to clean up the decorations and fuel your cleanup with this bark.
I love the mix of white chocolate and milk chocolate. I list specific chocolate bars I used for this recipe, but any chocolate bars will do. You can double, triple or even quadruple the recipe as you choose. Have M&M’s? Great – throw them in the bark. What about some Rolos? Great, those will work, too. You can even do sour or chewy candies. The sky is the limit, and it’s a fun way to get the kids involved in the kitchen! You can get really creative and buy the colored white chocolate from your local craft store like purple, green or orange. I like the addition of the candy eyeballs in the bark to give it the extra Halloween edge. It’s a great way to extend Halloween just a little further and use up lots of candy the kids collected.
On a side note, if you don’t have little kids in the house and still want to make this bark, head to Publix the day after Halloween. They typically discount all the Halloween candy, giving you an extra reason to make this Halloween candy bark!
