I have the cutest (and easiest) fall treat recipe for you all today! Last week I whipped up this fall snack mix for my three boys as an after school surprise and I kid you not-it lasted all of a half hour before they had eaten the entire bowl. (I may have helped a little!) Like any good snack mix this recipe has it all-salty, sweet and since it’s an autumn version of course it has Pumpkin Spice!!
I made it extra fun by using an edible pen to draw little skull faces on some of the mini marshmallows and it was hilarious how much my kids liked that little extra touch!
