Introduction: Using Candy Corn for Good

Candy Corn. The candy everyone has but no one wants. This recipe is a great way to take candy corn and make it useful. According to Jelly Belly candy corn is supposed to taste like “creamy vanilla.” which is why I have substituted the candy in this recipe as vanilla and takes over the role as sugar. I hope this changes how you think of the candy and that you enjoy!! Tip: Serve with milk or hot tea
