Equipment

Mixing bowl

Ingredients

1 ½ cups honey nut chex - can use regular chex or honey nut cheerios instead, but will need to adjust amount
1 ½ cups mini twist pretzels
1 cup kettle corn
1 cup salted cashews
½ cup candy corn
½ cup orange and brown M&Ms
½ cup yogurt covered raisins
½ cup chocolate covered almonds

Instructions

Add all ingredients to a large mixing bowl. Using your hands, carefully mix everything together without crushing the pretzels, chex, or popcorn.
Add trail mix to a large serving bowl or platter. Top with additional candy corn, m&ms, and raisins.

Notes

Chex alternatives - If honey nut Chex cereal isn't an option, you can replace it with Honey Nut Cheerios or regular Chex.

Pretzel alternatives - Switch it up from the classic pretzel and use pretzel sticks, pretzel nuggets, or even pretzel crisps for an extra crunch.

Kettle corn substitutions - Caramel corn is the next best option. Or, you can try plain popcorn or lightly buttered popcorn instead.

Cashew substitutions - Any other salted nuts such as almonds, peanuts, pecans, or pistachios will all add a nice savory crunch.

Sweet treats - Don't be afraid to replace the recommended sweets with your favorite Halloween candy. Things like mini marshmallows, mini peanut butter cups, semi-sweet chocolate chips, white chocolate chips, Reese's pieces, dried fruits, candy pumpkins, or chocolate covered nuts will all work.
