Candy Corn Snack Mix
I had no idea, until I started seeing anti candy corn memes pop up on social media, that some people hate candy corn! I love candy corn and I love it even more in this sweet and salty candy corn mix! The salty pretzels and peanuts balance out the sweet candy corn and candy pumpkins.
If you are feeling really ambitious, try making homemade candy corn. This recipe from Alton Brown is on my list to try! I also recommend the Brach’s Natural Candy Corn. I used it in my Harvest Charcuterie Board. The natural Candy Corn has a really delicious flavor and they are kind of rustic and natural looking. I found it at Target. Perfect for parties!
So wether you love candy corn or hate it, it’s definitely a Halloween tradition. I was shocked at how much I liked the peanuts and peanut butter chips together with the candy corn. It’s actually a really great combination.
You can serve this in a large bowl for a party, or in treat bags for a classroom party. Don’t forget to check for possible peanut allergies.
