a fantastically "fallish" snack mix!

So...I was requested by a couple of you to share my Golden Graham-candy corn-m&m-peanut snack mix recipe with you...(and yes...that's what I call it! Any clever ideas for a simpler name for this?).
Well....good news, folks. This is an easy one. In fact, if you manage to mess this one up, then we're dealing with some serious problems here.
Now, go ahead and grab a pen, because this is going to be hard to remember!
1. Take a box of this:
2. Add these....
3. Pour in some of these yummy things...
4. And finally, add these:

And VOILA'! There you have it! Some of you may be a little curious as to the amounts of each that need to be included. Simply put in as much as you'd like! If you're not a big peanut fan, but love candy corn, throw in an entire bag of candy corn and just a handful of peanuts! Adjust to what YOU like (and how many calories you're willing to give here!).
A couple of years ago, a student gave me some of this as a teacher happy. I'm pretty sure I consumed the entire container in 2 days! Needless to say, I've been making it ever since! It makes a really good "happy" and it's great to have on hand for parties, showers, (BUNKO!), etc.
Now...was that easy enough for you???
ENJOY!

You could simply call it Amazingness In a Bag....This is the complete opposite of weight watchers but I can't wait to try!

I'm drooling right now! I know what my contribution to our next tailgate will be!

Yum! I will try this one. I usually do just candy corn and peanuts.

Just made this...thank you for absolutely ruining any semblance of calorie counting in the immediate future. I am stocking up on candy corn for future batches. Holy Cow.

So I made this for work tomorrow (with pretzels instead of nuts b/c of food allergy issues at work) and I can't stop eating it!
