Trick-or-Treat Candy Sweets
5 recipes to make that Halloween candy even more enjoyable.
With every passing goblin, witch, and ghost, oozing caramels, gobs of ghoulish chocolate and peanut butter, and crinkly wrinkly wrappers of lollipops and licorice drop with a kur-plink, kur-plunk into a jack-o-lantern bucket, a thud in a sack, a crunch in a pocket. It’s time for Halloween.
The cool air here in Los Angeles, the excitement of dressing up, and the taste for something sweet buries in your soul during this time of year. With the exciting amount of trick-or-treat treasures, we’ve put together five ideas to transform that devilish candy collection into a new scrumptious treat for the family or a fall event.
