Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 4 cups Rice Chex cereal
- 2 cups mini pretzels
- 1 cup candy corn
- 1 cup mini peanut butter cups, halved
- 1 cup Reese’s Pieces or M&M’s
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
Wet Ingredients
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips, melted
Optional
- Halloween-themed sprinkles
Instructions
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the Rice Chex cereal, mini pretzels, candy corn, halved peanut butter cups, Reese’s Pieces or M&M’s, and mini marshmallows. Gently toss to mix all the ingredients evenly without crushing them.
- Add Melted White Chocolate: Drizzle the melted white chocolate over the mixture, tossing gently to coat the snack mix evenly. This adds a touch of sweetness and helps the mix hold together.
- Add Sprinkles (Optional): If desired, sprinkle Halloween-themed sprinkles over the coated mixture to give it a festive and colorful appearance.
- Set the Mix: Spread the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet in an even layer. Allow it to set at room temperature for about 10 minutes so the white chocolate hardens and the mix sticks together slightly.
- Serve or Package: Once set, break the mix into bite-sized pieces. Serve immediately or package in individual treat bags for parties or gifting.
Notes
- You can substitute mini peanut butter cups with your favorite chocolate candy for variation.
- Store the mix in an airtight container to keep it fresh for up to one week.
- For a nut-free option, omit peanut butter cups and use allergy-safe candy alternatives.
- Make sure the white chocolate is fully melted but not hot to avoid melting the candies when mixing.
