Description
An easy, beginner-proof Halloween snack mix that requires zero cooking. It combines salty pretzels with sweet candy corn and white chocolate chips for a festive, crunchy treat perfect for parties.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups salted pretzels (sticks or twists)
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 2 cups candy corn
- 1 cup orange M&Ms or mini candy corn
- ½ cup white chocolate chips (for drizzle, optional)
- 2 tablespoons orange sprinkles (optional)
Instructions
- Grab a large mixing bowl and ensure it is clean and dry to prevent soggy pretzels.
- Pour in 4 cups of salted pretzels. Break large twisted pretzels into smaller pieces if desired.
- Add 1 cup of white chocolate chips to the bowl.
- Add 2 cups of candy corn and 1 cup of orange M&Ms (or more candy corn).
- Gently fold the ingredients together with a silicone spatula until evenly distributed. Avoid stirring too hard to prevent crushing the candy corn.
- Optional: Melt ½ cup of white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth. Drizzle over the mix in a zigzag pattern.
- Optional: Sprinkle orange sprinkles over the top if using the chocolate drizzle.
- If drizzled, spread the mix on parchment paper and let sit for 10-15 minutes at room temperature to set. If not drizzled, serve immediately.
- Serve in a bowl or portion into small bags for parties.
Notes
Ensure pretzels are fresh and crunchy. If using stale pretzels, toast them at 300°F for 5 minutes before mixing. White chocolate melts quickly and can seize if overheated or exposed to water; melt in short bursts. Store in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
