You did all that work, bought the candy, opened the door for all the little tykes ringing your bell,  told them all how adorable they where (even if you couldn’t figure out what half of them were dressed as) and now it’s time to enjoy some of that candy in some adult boo-zy treats!  Cheers!

3 rolls of Smarties

Tootsie Roll Martini54f669834804f_-_tootsie-roll-martini-lynsey-lous-s2

Ingredients

3 oz. Vodka
1/2 oz. Chocolate Liqueur
1/2 oz. Grand Marnier

Instructions

Shake with cracked ice and strain into a chilled martini glass. Garnish with a tootsie roll

M&M ShooterM&Ms

Sometimes you don’t want a full drink; that’s when a shooter is perfect. Same goes for chocolate – sometimes you don’t want a full bar of chocolate, but a couple of M&Ms really hit the spot. That’s why it’s only natural that this recipe involves a shooter AND M&Ms. You’re welcome.

  • Mix together 1/2 oz. Frangelico (hazelnut liqueur) and 1/2 oz. Creme de Cacao.
  • Serve in a shot glass and top with whipped cream and garnish with M&Ms.
