Halloween Overload

[bjarvis]

A few days ago, Kent agreed we should arm ourselves appropriately with candy should the neighbourhood kids come trick-or-treating. What harm could it do?

When I was out shopping on Sunday, I bought a couple of bags of little Kit-Kat bars as they're something I always looked forward to when I was a kid. And I tossed in some M&Ms for variety. And then some Three Musketeers as Kent likes them. And things kinda got out of hand from there.

I was a good boy: I didn't touch the stash before Halloween. Not much, anyway.

And not a soul came to our door. Nada. We have 15 lbs of freakin' Halloween mini candy bars to give away and not a kid approached our house. Now I have to eat the entire basket of goodies myself.

BURN IN HELL YOU LITTLE TWERPS!

Throw the [unwrapped] M&M's & Kit Kat bars into a blender or food processor. Process into medium sized crumbs. Toss the mixture into a double boiler along with an appropriate amount of UNsweetened, BITTERsweet, or SEMIsweet chocolate. (With that much sugar and milk chocolate, I'd lean heavily towards UNsweetened or BITTERsweet myself.)

All of this work (it's not much work, really) makes a kickass dessert sauce. It can also be used as a cake filling or truffle filling.

Or so I'm told...

Oooo... that sounds intriguing. If any of it survives to the weekend, I may give it a try.
