Halloween Candy Bark

Leftover Halloween Candy.

I know, I know. 

What’s that right?

It’s about the same as “leftover wine.”

Huh? 

😀

If “leftover candy” is something rare in your home,

you may want to consider making some of this BEFORE

all the candy gets gobbled up.  

Plus, it makes great gifts!!!

I am sharing this “Eerily-Easy” Candy Recipe for our

Celebrations of Home” October Blog Hop.

I will add all the links to everyone who is participating below.

Making candy!

Okay, I have a secret.

I am NOT a baker nor a candy maker!

So when it comes to melting candy and candy

thermometers and all that technical stuff…

well, I am lost. 

I guess that is why I love making a bark.

If you’re not familiar with a bark candy, basically it’s

a layer of chocolate with other ingredients layered into it.

Basically, you can use ANY ingredients.

Accept Spam.

And sardines.

I would NOT use those.

😀

Here are my ingredients…

I wanted to use ingredients you think of when you

think of Halloween.

Candy corn, caramel popcorn, salted pumpkin seeds,

and M&M’s. 

(I picked out all of the blue ones – LOL)

Next, I simply melted a package of White Chocolate Candy Melt.

I layered some parchment paper on a cookie sheet, 

poured the melted chocolate on top and spread it out

about 1/4″ thick. 

Next came the fun part…adding the candy.

Eat one…place two.

Eat two..place one.

I added until I thought it was nice and full.

Finally, I melted some semi-sweet chocolate chips in a 

little zip-lock baggie.  Then, snipped a tiny hole at one corner…

… and drizzled the melted chocolate over the Bark.

You don’t actually cut up the candy, you just break it.

You can break it into smaller or larger pieces.

I just let it break wherever it wants and break larger pieces

into smaller pieces as needed.

You end up with sweet chocolate, crunchy popcorn, and

salty pumpkin seeds.

I made three batches.

Some will get packaged up in decorated Chinese Take-Out

boxes for gifts for friends, neighbors and teachers.

 

Honestly, it’s so easy – its

FRIGHTENING!!!!!

If you are not a white chocolate fan, you can substitute

milk or dark chocolate and drizzle with white chocolate.

And like I said… and kind of Halloween candy and nuts will work.

I know, I know.

You won’t find this under the Health Food category –

but you will find it under the 

“Eerily Easy”

category.
