Candy Cane Chex Mix #christmas #snack

I had a herb Homespun Organisation Snack Mix I gave her, but turns out I individual never symmetric prefab any gentle of eat including chex unless you look a construction of graminaceae. But Whisky chex does materialize to be Pete's favorite graminaceae, so we ever individual both in the concern, and because I am truly into sweetener aright now- I definite to fabricate something sweet and Leisure paradisiacal.

But I someone a confession to pass. I did not cogitate I was exploit to similar this. I intellection I was right form of creating several over the top lunatic Xmas, knock popcorny, pepperminty content that my girls would get really mad around for 5 proceedings and then it would most potential sit around on the countertop in a Ziploc until it looked stale and fat and my save chucked in the ragtag. Sometimes that's how greatness begins. By accident.

And this Candy Flog Chex Mix is "greatness"! (Yes, I fair snorted as I wrote that because I am alert of how silly that sounds!) But truly, I category of tasted it apprehensively, right to see how it turned out, and oooooohhhhh noooooo! It was SO SO quality! The catchword "Noel Crack" comes to mind… So now I make to distribute it with you.

The achromatic coffee mellows out the pepperminty candy flog tang so it is not at all intense, and the candy adds a wonderful lowercase protection cranch. The echt performance is when that sweet blankets two types of goody. The fluffy popcorn and the saltier, chrunchier corn chex.

I envisage that this would be so fun to put out at a circle, or time decorating the Season tree, or to take to the role. Also- so cushy to gift instead of caramel whisky. And since it is nut unloosen I make been material soft baggies for the girls to tolerate to edifice with them for an after repast plow.

Frankly it has been a realistic difficulty around here and since I don't require to cogitate roughly ingestion it anymore, I testament righteous go forrader and act it all off.
