Spooky Snack Mix

A Snack Mix to Go Batty For

Here I go again! I’m on a mission to make sure I have a festive snack mix for every occasion and this spooky snack mix is so fun and so yummy. My crew went crazy for it the first time I made it and has been begging for it ever since.

Spooky Snack Mix

With chocolate candy coated cereal, chocolate peanut butter bat shaped cereal, spooky fun sprinkles, bat shaped pretzels, bright colored peanut M&M’s Ghoul’s Mix, harvest candy corn and Sun-Maid orange and black yogurt covered raisins, it’s a party to both the eyes and the mouth. The sweet and salty flavors with the crunchy and chewy textures is dangerously delicious!

How to Make a Spooky Snack Mix for Halloween

You just coat the Chex chocolate cereal in the chocolate candy coating and lay it out flat before immediately sprinkling with the Hyde and Eek Monster Mash sprinkles, Reese’s Puffs Peanut Butter Bats cereal or Count Chocula Cereal with Monster Marshmallows and all the other goodies. These Halloween Circus Animal Cookies would be an adorable and delicious addition as well! Let it set until completely cooled and then break it into pieces and enjoy!

Spooky Snack Mix

Shopping List

Here’s a handy dandy shopping list to load up your cart with everything you need to make this snack mix:

  • 1 (16 ounce) package chocolate candy coating
  • 6 cups (12.8 ounce box) Chex chocolate cereal
  • 1 (5.6 ounce) container Hyde and Eek Monster Mash Sprinkles
  • 1 cup Peanut M&M’s Ghoul’s Mix (2 share size bags)
  • 1/2 cup Sun-Maid orange and black yogurt covered raisins (they come in mini boxes on the Halloween aisle or near the raisins)
  • 2 cups Reese’s Puffs Bats Cereal or Count Chocula Cereal with Monster Marshmallows
  • 1 (4.2 ounce) package Brach’s Harvest Candy Corn
  • 2 cups Utz bat shaped pretzels (picked out from the mini bags with bats and pumpkins mixed)
  • Optional: Mother’s Halloween Circus Animal cookies

Spooky Snack Mix

So great for a Halloween party or just to have in an airtight glass jar on the kitchen counter leading up to Halloween. It’s spooky scrumptious!

Have a sweet Halloween!

Description

This scrumptious Spooky Snack Mix is sure to be a Halloween hit!


Ingredients

  • 1 (16 ounce) package chocolate candy coating or 1 (20 ounce) package chocolate almond bark
  • 6 cups (12.8 ounce box) Chex chocolate cereal
  • 1 (5.6 ounce) container Hyde and Eek Monster Mash sprinkle mix
  • 1 cup peanut M&M’s Ghoul’s Mix (2 share size bags)
  • 1/2 cup Sun-Maid orange and black yogurt covered raisins (they come in mini boxes on the Halloween aisle or near the raisins)
  • 2 cups Reese’s Puffs Peanut Butter Bats cereal or Count Chocula Cereal with Monster Marshmallows
  • 1 (4.2 ounce) package Harvest Candy Corn
  • 2 cups Utz bat shaped pretzels (picked out from the mini bags with bats and pumpkins mixed)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, add the Chex cereal.
  2. In a microwave safe bowl, melt the chocolate candy coating according to package directions, usually 2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds until melted and smooth. Be sure not to over melt the candy coating as it will burn and become too thick to stir and coat the mix evenly.
  3. Pour the melted candy coating over the Chex cereal in the large bowl and toss to coat with a large spoon. Cereal should be evenly coated in the candy coating.
  4. Spread the coated cereal in an even layer on parchment paper. Immediately sprinkle with the sprinkles and then the remaining ingredients.
  5. Allow mixture to cool completely. Break apart to serve. Store in an airtight container or baggie.

    I think if you spread out the Chex with the melted coating and then sprinkled the sprinkles over and let that cool and then broke it (carefully) into pieces and mixed with the remaining ingredients you might get a better result. The coating is so abundant it stuck to everything and muddied the visual. Otherwise fun and deliciously addictive
