FAQs
As long as you store this mixture in an airtight container, it will last for up to 2 weeks! It can be kept at room temperature without issue.
Absolutely! You can easily double or triple this recipe without any problems at all. This makes it super simple to make for a group!
You can also halve the recipe easily. I do this sometimes when it’s just me snacking on it – because otherwise, I’ll eat the entire batch.
I’ve only ever added peanuts because I really love the taste and flavor. But I do think that other nuts would taste great. Cashews are always a great idea, and walnuts are a winning choice as well.
I would stay away from harder nuts like almonds just because some people may not like the hard texture.

Easy Halloween Snack Mix is the perfect party recipe! It’s semi-homemade with just 3 ingredients and tastes like a candy bar. This is such an easy recipe!
How cute for any Halloween festivities ( or just the season!). You are so clever!
I want to hug that little cauldron you used in your photos! What a great snack mix! I’d add in some extra chocolate since that’s how I roll. 🙂
Genius use of RKTreats! And yes the peanuts/candycorn trick. I learned about that one back in the early days of blogging too and yes it swayed me from meh about candy corn to always a fan. You know what else I’ve never thought to use candy corn for…that bonking feeling at about mile 10 of a marathon when I normally eat Swedish Fish. Next race I’m also bringing candy corn…tastes WAY better than gel shots!
Haha I’m sure most things would taste better than a gel shot!! LOL
Oh a three ingredient snack mix? Count me in! This looks so addicting, Dorothy! Love the rice krispie treats in here!
I totally hear ya. I miss the days of having no real treats in the house. Now I feel angry if I somehow run out of tricked-out dessert.
Speaking of bomb dot com, this is what your snack mix here is. It’s perfect!!
