For this special Halloween themed snack mix I used a few specialty fall only items.
Obviously these are not required but I thought they were fun and made the snack mix special.
1. Fall colored M&Ms candies {Target}
2. Pumpkin Spice Pumpkin Seeds {Trader Joe’s}
3. Halloween Shaped Mini Pretzels {Utz brand, Target}
4. Autumn Mix candy corn {Dollar Tree}
Along with the fall themed items I also added Bugles snacks since they look like witch hats and dried cranberries for color along with sweet kettle popcorn.

That’s an adorable photo of your daughters! My 25-year-old daughter and her best friend are coming over Friday night to watch HP2! Making the Magic Munch – just a question. How much of the orange candy melts do you use? The whole 12 oz package? Thanks for the recipe and enjoy the movie!
