• You now have 2 options on how to use this thick candy mix.
• A. Pour it or dump it onto a non-stick cookie sheet and let it cool.
• After that you can cut it in squares and wrap them on plastic wrap and refrigerate them till you are ready to eat them.
• B. You can pour the thick candy mix from the pan into the prebaked pie crust and just chill in the refrigerator till you serve it.
