Ingredients
- 3 cups popcorn
- 1 cup pretzel sticks
- 1 cup candy corn
- 1 cup chocolate candy (M&Ms)
- 1/2 cup gummy worms
- 1/2 cup nuts (optional)
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 3 cups of popcorn, 1 cup of pretzel sticks, 1 cup of candy corn, 1 cup of chocolate candy (such as M&Ms), 1/2 cup of gummy worms, and 1/2 cup of nuts (optional).
- In a large mixing bowl, add the 3 cups of popcorn. If you're using pre-popped popcorn, make sure to check for any unpopped kernels and remove them.
- Next, add the 1 cup of pretzel sticks to the bowl with the popcorn. This will add a nice crunch and salty flavor to your mix.
- Pour in the 1 cup of candy corn. This sweet treat will give your snack mix a festive Halloween touch.
- Add the 1 cup of chocolate candy (M&Ms) to the mix. You can choose any color combination to match the Halloween theme, such as orange, black, and purple.
- Now, add the 1/2 cup of gummy worms. These will add a fun and chewy element to your snack mix, perfect for the Halloween vibe.
- If you choose to include nuts, add the 1/2 cup of nuts at this point. They can be any variety you like, such as peanuts, almonds, or cashews, to provide a nutty flavor and additional crunch.
- Using a large spoon or spatula, gently mix all the ingredients together until they are evenly distributed. Be careful not to crush the popcorn or pretzels.
- Once mixed, transfer your Graveyard Grub Halloween Snack Mix to a festive serving bowl or individual snack bags for easy sharing.
- Enjoy your spooky snack mix at your Halloween party, or package it as a fun treat to share with friends and family!
Tips
- • For the freshest popcorn, consider air-popping or using freshly popped kernels to ensure maximum crunch. • Mix colors strategically! Use Halloween-themed M&Ms or choose orange, black, and purple candies to enhance the festive look. • To prevent the mix from getting soggy, prepare it close to serving time. • For a kid-friendly version, you can omit the nuts or replace them with additional candy. • Store in an airtight container to maintain freshness and crispness. • Create individual treat bags for easy party favors or classroom treats. • Experiment with different candy combinations to make the mix uniquely yours!
