S'mores Snack Mix
What is more satisfying than the combination of S'mores? S’mores Snack Mix! The nostalgic flavors take you right back to summers spent camping. I remember toasting marshmallows, gooey and sticky, the perfect filling with chocolate and the book ends of graham crackers. YUM!!
The S’mores Snack Mix can be customized based on your taste and preference. It is so fun to gather up all of the ingredients (I do this over a few weeks) and see what kind of S’mores related candy is available at the market. Try to choose colorful and flavorful snacks- a mix of salty and sweet usually balances each handful. The options are endless!
If you have dietary concerns, you can easily adjust this recipe for allergies, vegan or gluten free restrictions, just watch out for all of the labels.
Our S’mores Snack Mix starts by setting out all of the ingredients and unwrapping what you need first. To assemble, think about making a lasagna. First, pour an even layer of the whole wheat square cereal, next the graham cracker cereal, the chocolate puff ball cereal, and pretzels. Add the animal crackers. Layer the semi-sweet chocolate chips followed by the milk or mixture of dark and milk chocolate chips. Finally, place Hershey’s bars on the chips and add the dehydrated marshmallow bits. Mix carefully by hand all of the ingredients. Try not to sneak a bite! You may want to save a few colorful items for the very top when the S’mores Snack Mix is first opened.
The S’mores Snack Mix is a quintessential make ahead snack for summer! AND you can easily double the batch. Buy a large wood bowl or sealable snack container, fill it up with S’mores Snack Mix and bring it along.
Package the S’mores Snack Mix up for parties with clear 6x9 treat bags tied with brown and white ribbon.
