Candy-Coated Halloween Party Mix Recipe
This candy-coated Halloween Party Mix is definitely a treat. It's a crowd favorite, so I recommend making a double batch!
Ingredients
- 4 cups rice and corn cereal
- ½ cup raisins or dried cranberries
- 1 cup pretzels
- 1 cup candy corn
- 1 cup mellowcreme pumpkins (plus more for garnish)
- 12 ounces white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or wax paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cereal, raisins, pretzels, candy corn and mellowcreme pumpkins. Stir gently to mix.
- Following the directions on the package, melt the white chocolate chips in a microwave or over a double boiler, being careful not to let the candy burn.
- Once chocolate is melted, pour it over the cereal mixture. Quickly, but gently, stir to coat.
- Pour the candy-coated snack mix onto the lined baking pan. Spread into a single layer and allow to cool.
- Sprinkle with more candy pumpkins, if desired.
- Once the mixture has cooled and the has chocolate hardened, break up any large clumps of party mix.
