Description

A colorful five-minute Halloween snack mix made with caramel corn, crisp cereal, salty pretzels, candy corn, chocolate, and peanut butter candy.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 cups caramel corn with nuts
  • 2 cups Shreddies cereal, plain or honey flavor
  • 2 cups mini pretzel twists
  • 1/2 cup candy corn
  • 1/2 cup candy pumpkins
  • 1/2 cup Reese’s Pieces
  • 1/2 cup mini Rolos, unwrapped

Instructions

  1. Unwrap the mini Rolos and break any large caramel corn clusters into bite-size pieces.
  2. Measure all ingredients separately and place the caramel corn, cereal, and pretzels in a large mixing bowl.
  3. Toss the caramel corn, cereal, and pretzels gently until evenly combined.
  4. Add the candy corn, candy pumpkins, Reese’s Pieces, and mini Rolos.
  5. Fold the mixture gently from the bottom toward the top until the candy looks evenly distributed.
  6. Serve immediately in a large bowl or divide the mixture among sealed treat bags.
  7. Store any remaining snack mix in an airtight container at cool room temperature.

Notes

  1. For a nut-free variation, use caramel corn without nuts and replace the Reese’s Pieces with an appropriate nut-free candy.
  2. Replace Shreddies with an equal amount of Life cereal or Chex cereal when needed.
  3. Store the mixture away from heat and moisture for the best crunchy texture.
  4. Check all package labels carefully when preparing the recipe for guests with food allergies.
