Halloween Party Treats

Do you have too much candy left from Halloween?
You can donate it to Second Harvest or other local food banks:

You could also use some of it to make yummy desserts, such as this Snickers Sauce, which was included in this NPR article:

Snickers Sauce
8 snack-size Snickers bars
3/4 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup light brown sugar
1/2 cup roasted unsalted peanuts



In a small heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat, combine chopped Snickers, heavy cream and brown sugar. Reduce heat to medium-low and allow sauce to gently bubble for about 5 minutes, or until thick and gooey, stirring occasionally. The sauce should adhere to the back of a spoon. Stir in the peanuts. Remove pan from heat.
