Easter is over and you are left with a mountain of candy. What now? Below are a few ideas for what to do with all of that Easter bounty.
- Throw a milkshake party. Buy a couple gallons of milk and ice cream and invite some friends over (they could bring their candy, too). Create a buffet bursting with different candy combinations for your milk shake. The possibilities are endless.
- Chop and freeze leftover candy. Throw it in your brownie or cake batters as you bake throughout the year.
- Cut up your chocolate eggs into chunks and add them into your cookie batter. Chocolate "chunk" cookies always sound more appealing than chocolate "chip" cookies.
- Make small goody bags of candy and give them to your kids as a reward for doing something good. If you're short of money, this is a free way to pay your kids when they complete their chores.
- Make smores with Peeps. Your little sandwich will be so colorful and springy.
- Melt them down your chocolate bunnies and make chocolate dipped strawberries or a fondue station. Check out, "Thank You Mr. Easter Bunny" for more details.
- Warm your kids' belly with a mint hot chocolate. Warm some milk over the stove and add Andes Mints for a twist on a wonderful classic.
- Place your jelly beans in a bowl and bring it to the office. If you can't eat it all, tempt someone else to do so.
