Equipment
- Large mixing bowl
- wooden spoon
Ingredients
- 3 cups Original Chex Mix
- ½ cup Reese's Mini Unwrapped not the miniature cups
- ½ cup Brach's Autumn Mix candy
- ½ cup Reese's Pieces
- 1 cup chocolate covered pretzels white, milk, or dark
- ½ cup chocolate chips white, milk, or dark
- 1 cup Crunch & Munch caramel popcorn or cheddar popcorn
Instructions
- Pour the Chex Mix into your large bowl first. This creates the foundation for your fall snack mix. Next, add the caramel popcorn, distributing it evenly throughout the base.
- Add both types of chocolate. First, sprinkle in the chocolate covered pretzels. Then, add the chocolate chips, making sure they distribute evenly.
- Gently fold in the Reese's pieces and autumn candy mix. Use a light touch here—you want to maintain the integrity of each piece.
- Give everything a final, gentle stir. Then, taste and adjust if needed. Sometimes add extra chocolate chips if the mix seems too salty, or more autumn candy for extra sweetness.
- Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to two weeks.
Notes
Store your fall snack mix in an airtight container for up to two weeks. You can prepare this up to three days before serving—the flavors actually meld beautifully. For variations, try adding pralines and pecans for Southern style, or dried cranberries and walnuts for Pacific Northwest twist.
