Make them over a bonfire or even in the oven. Don’t feel trapped using just the regular old chocolate bar. Peanut butter cups and Twix make delicious s’more combos.

Sort it by type, by color, by brand, by whatever. Make your own sheet to keep track or use this one. Older children can graph the outcome. Candy math, it has sweet rewards.

Add candies and raisins to a mix of your favorite nuts. When you mix peanuts and candy corns, it tastes just like a Payday bar. Nuts and chocolate chunks are a perfect mix. M&M’s and Reese’s Pieces are AMAZING together.

Think decorating gingerbread houses in the next 30-90 days or even Christmas cookies.

Making brownies? Add some candy bars? Serving ice cream? Crush up some candy for fun. What about those yummy cookies with the Hershey kisses on them? Mmmmmmm.
