Hey Guys! I know many of you will be attending or hosting some spooktacular Halloween parties this weekend, so I thought I’d share this amazing recipe from The Novice Chef. It’s a perfect snack to have out on tables at your Halloween party, or a great way to use up leftover candy corn after Halloween. It’s called Pumpkin Spice Chex Mix and I’m warning you now- IT IS ADDICTING!! I’m not just saying that because I may or may not have my own debilitating addiction with the Mellowcreme candy pumpkins, you know the ones that come mixed in the candy corn Autumn Mix. My friend, who doesn’t really like candy corn or candy pumpkins all that much, raves about it!! So here is the recipe and I hope everyone has a hauntingly good time this weekend and Halloween.
