Starting your Snack Mix

This Halloween Pretzel Snack Mix is my absolute favorite Halloween-inspired recipe for a few good reasons. It includes all my favorite sweets for starters and is a combination of both a sweet and salty snack.

Aside from its great taste, it takes less than 10 minutes to prepare. In just 10 minutes, you can make the snack mix and serve it to the kids. If you follow the recipe to a T, you will have enough of the snack mix for at least eight people, but you can always double the recipe if need be.

Helpful Tips

If you are going to prepare this Halloween snack mix, there are some helpful tips to know ahead of time. For example, the recipe does call for peanut M&Ms in addition to the regular M&Ms.

  • After I make the Halloween snack mix, we usually devour it in no time because it is that good.
  • If I am making the mix for a party, I will store it in the fridge in a sealed container with a lid.
  • The reason that I like to store the mix in the fridge is that it keeps the snack mix cool and prevents the chocolate from melting everywhere.
