Uses for Jelly Belly jelly beans

[MomK]

Does anyone have recipes which include jelly beans as an ingredient?
I have 1/2 quart of these things, and rather than eat them mindlessly, I'd like to do something creative! Thanks for any advice!

You could make a cake and sprinkle them over the top or on top of frosted cupcakes. I did this for Easter. They are also good just to eat (mindlessly)

Candy jewelry?

What about making white fudge and mixing the jelly beans in?

Jelly Bellys wouldn't last that long around me, LOL.

I like the idea of using them on cupcakes.

Sorry I don't have anything creative of my own to add.

I am not to creative but found this on the net:

Use leftover Jelly Beans from Easter to make these wonderful crisp, sweet, and chewy bar cookies.
INGREDIENTS:
3 Tbsp. butter
1 (10 oz.) pkg. marshmallows
5 cups crisp rice cereal
1-1/2 cups assorted jellybeans
PREPARATION:
In large microwave safe bowl, combine butter and marshmallows. Cook on high power for 3 minutes, stirring halfway during cooking time. Stir until smooth. Add cereal and jellybeans; stir until coated. Press mixture into a buttered 13x9" pan and let cool. Serves 12-16


Good Luck,
