Halloween Snack Mix

This is so easy! I feel in love with snack mix over the summer! My little girl loves all the different ingredients! It is so much better than giving her plain cheerios or pretzels! I love doing festive things around our house, it makes the holidays all the more festive! We made a 4th of July Snack Mix and it was a HUGE hit! We love to make a big batch, seal it in an air tight container and use it to snack on until its gone! It also makes a festive and expensive gift! I love the idea of sealing it up in a mason jar type container and adding a festive Halloween ribbon to it! So this is less of a recipe, and more of a suggestion. Add in whatever you like and omit what you don't.. it is just that easy!

Just mix all the ingredients in a big bowl and store in an air tight container!

Suggested ingredients:

Cheese Crackers

Salted Peanuts

Pretzels

Reese's Pieces Candy

Caramel Popcorn

Honey Nut Cheerios

Cocoa Puffs

4th of July Snack Mix

 

The perfect snack mix for a sweet and salty 4th of July treat! Fill up individual bags or paper cups for a take home treat from you cookout party! 

Ingredients:

Mini pretzels

Popcorn (air-popped)

Cereal (Chex Mix, Cheerios, your choice)

Peanuts (or any nut of your choice)

M&M's (or other candy)

Festive sprinkles

Chocolate for melting (white, milk or dark)

Directions:

1. On a sheet pan, spread out the pretzels, popcorn, cereal, and peanuts. Do not over fill the pan, you will need room to move them around.

2. Melt the chocolate in the microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.

3. Use a spoon to drizzle the chocolate over the sheet pan of snacks, you can lightly stir or toss the snacks to coat them even more with chocolate. While the chocolate is still warm add the M&M's and sprinkles. Stir lightly to combine

4. Spread the snack mix back out onto the sheet pan. If you want, you can drizzle with additional chocolate. Let the mixture cool completely, and then begin to break it apart.

5. Store in an air tight bag or container. The mixture will be fresh for 2-3 days

Enjoy :)
