Bite sized pieces of your favorite candy bars mixed into a bowl of salty chocolate covered popcorn.
Do you need a way to use up some of your leftover Halloween candy? Or, maybe you’re looking for a reason to sneak a few from your kids’ stash so it diminishes more quickly? Aside from making a batch of Halloween Candy Bark, you should try this simple popcorn mix. Seriously, it’s the easiest recipe ever.
You control the types of candy bars you want in the mix. I raided Judah’s bucket of candy and pulled out some of my favorites, including Snickers, Butterfingers, Reeses Peanut Butter Cups and more. Which kind would you make sure to add?

Recipe Notes
The "Cook Time" is the cooling time. There is no actual cooking time in this recipe.
Love this, Nikki! I think my kids might even let me raid their buckets for this one.
Thanks, Karly! Always good to find recipes the kids will enjoy, too! 🙂
