Making the best candy cupcakes ever!

Guest post written by Kendra Cartman

One of the things that I try to do every year after Halloween is use up all of that extra Halloween candy to make some really good baked goods. It never fails that my husband thinks that we don't have enough candy at our home for our trick or treaters even though I've bought plenty. Then on his way home from work on Halloween evening, he'll stop at the grocery store along with everyone else to pick up those last few bags of candy. I tell him not to do that every year. But he still does. At least all that extra candy is really good for making some delicious baked goods after Halloween is over and done with!

I started doing that years ago when I got sick of seeing all this candy laying around the house for too long. Now each year I use my wireless internet Winston Salem to look up all kinds of great recipes for it. Now I'm certain that my husband goes and buys the extra candy just because he knows that I'll be forced to use it.

But I'm okay with this routine too. It really gives me the chance to experiment with candy as ingredients, like when I used some snickers chunks in cupcakes!
