A Fall Popcorn Snack Mix Made Easy. From candy corn, cinnamon spice, and caramel-flavored treats, all scream “fall time.” With this DIY treat, we’re talking about something fun, tasty, and oh-so-easy to make!
I don’t know about you my friend, but the Fall season is my absolute favorite season of the year! The weather is cooler and perfect for a cozy night in on the sofa watching movies with some great snacks.
One of my favorite things I like to do when I go to the movies is get some popcorn, and then get some sort of chocolate candy to dump over into my popcorn. There’s the sweet and salty that works so well together. Now, when I have the opportunity to make my own movie night snacks, I tend to go all out and jazz it up a little. Well….. ok a lot!
Not only do I like to mix some of our favorite snacks in a bowl. But the newest addition to this snack mix is drizzling some caramel sauce over the top of the popcorn mix. Yum on top of more yum!
My family loves it, and honestly, I don’t remember the last time I had popcorn by itself! LOL
What you’ll need
- Popcorn – When it comes to Popcorn, the choice is totally yours. Whether you prefer microwave popcorn, stove top, or already popped store-bought. Regardless of your preference, it will still work and taste very good. I popped the kernels in the microwave with our neat little popcorn microwave glass kettle pot.
- Chex Mix – While you can use your favorite Chex Mix for this recipe, I opted for the Turtle Indulgent Chex Mix, which is my absolute favorite! This snack mix offers its own delightful combination of sweet and salty flavors, but I couldn’t resist adding a few extra touches.
- Reese’s Minis – Another favorite of ours, especially my husband! These Reese’s Minis add that extra layer of chocolatey sweetness to this snack.
- Cocoa Puffs Popcorn – Omg! These Cocoa Puffs Popcorn are the snack that brings it all together. If you haven’t tried these snacks, look for it in your local store on the snack aisle.
- Caramel Sauce – This step is totally optional, but if you don’t mind getting your fingers a little sticky, feel free to drizzle it on! It’s the perfect finishing touch to this recipe. However, instead of drizzling the caramel sauce straight out of the container, try warming it up first for an even better experience. You won’t be disappointed!
