I just love this time of year — fall is in the air. And the first fun holiday is Halloween!
Make this Halloween Snack Mix to really get into the Halloween spirit if you’re looking for something you can whip up in under 20 minutes!
Plus, it is super-kid friendly. Kids will love helping to create this Crunchy Halloween Monster Munch with you!
Just be sure an adult helps with the stove top portion of the recipe. Melting chocolate can be very hot!
Send this in your child’s lunch box to score some serious awesome-mom points! Or, package Halloween Snack Mix in a cute little bag or mason jar to give out as Halloween gifts to friends and family.
Feel free to substitute ingredients if you don’t have these exact ingredients on hand.
For example, in place of the popcorn or pretzels, you could use any kind of cereal — toasted O’s, crispy rice, etc. Anything crunchy and somewhat salty would work.
If you don’t have candy corn, there are some Halloween-themed M&Ms in the stores now — you could substitute those for your sweet component.
