<![CDATA[Monster Munch]]>This is the easiest Halloween snack mix. If you love adding candy to your popcorn (salty/sweet heaven) this is for you!  Also, it’s a great project to make with kids because all you need is your microwave.  I used seasonal M&M’s and Candy Corn, but feel free to use your favorite candy!

Combine the popcorn, pretzels, M&M’s, and Candy Corn in a large bowl.  I actually use a large soup pot.

Microwave the candy melts on at 50% power for one minute.

Stir and continue microwaving for 30 second intervals, stirring each time, until smooth.

Drizzle the candy mixture over the popcorn mixture and stir to combine.  It takes a minute, but stay with it while the Candy Melt is still warm.

Lay a long sheet of parchment paper on your counter, and spread the popcorn mixture into an even layer.  While it is still warm, top with sprinkles.  Let cool.
