  • 1 cup mini pretzels

Candy

  • 1 cup assorted candy pieces (such as candy-coated chocolates or candy corn)

Chocolate

  • 1 cup chocolate chips or chunks

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add cereal, pretzels, candy, and chocolate. Ensure all components are fresh and ready to mix.
  2. Mix Thoroughly: Using a large spoon, gently but thoroughly mix all ingredients until evenly combined, making sure the chocolate chips do not melt or clump together.

  • For a gluten-free version, ensure pretzels and cereal are certified gluten-free.
  • Keep the mix in an airtight container to maintain crunchiness.
