HALLOWEEN SNACK MIX

You may know this recipe by another name. I’ve seen it called Candy Corn Trash, White Trash, Reindeer Chow (for Christmas), or Mardi Gras Snack Mix. Basically, they’re all the same recipe except various candy is included to correspond with the holidays. Basically, you can substitute the candy corn for M&Ms or your favorite candy.

Chex Mix ingredients

The full recipe with ingredient amounts and instructions is at the bottom of this post. You can save the recipe to your personal and private recipe box right here on Call Me PMc. This way you’ll never misplace it.

This is a great, versatile recipe that you can easily swap out different kinds of candy to fit any holiday or party theme. Don’t like marshmallows? Just leave them out! Don’t like peanuts, add almonds instead!

Here’s a list of what I included in this recipe

• Cheerios
• Corn Chex
• Peanuts
• Mini marshmallows
• Pretzels
• Candy corn

As well, this mix will store in an airtight container for ages so you can make up a big batch for your Netflix watching spree. It’s a great party nibbler. Or, fill a clear plastic treat bag and tie it with a pretty ribbon for a special handmade gift.
