I tend to forget the easiest things, like these 2 Easy Favorite Fall Snacks! Candy Corn Peanut Mix and Chocolate Dipped Pretzel Sticks. They are so easy they require no recipe but without the visual reminder of how cute and yummy they are I always forget them till the last minute!
These snacks are super easy to throw together with simple ingredients grabbed while at the store! They are perfect to send in lunches or as a great snack before sports practices – -or if your like me a tractor snack! And I just discovered these adorable Mason Jar Zipper bags which I shall henceforth be using for these treats!
The candy corn and peanuts are just a toss together, a lot of people call this Payday Mix! What’s your candy corn to peanut ratio – we all have one. I’m a one candy corn to 3 peanut halves kinda girl – and yes I go to the trouble of making sure each bite is that exact ratio.
Adding seasonal sprinkles to my pretzels dipped in chocolate is a go to for me, sprinkles make me smile! I used these super cute fall leaves on these. I also used Ghirardelli white chocolate melting wafers because I love really good white chocolate. If I’m using the calories I’m using the good stuff! I always melt my chocolate in a tall narrow container so that I get as much of the pretzel stick covered as possible – all I want uncovered is a small handle. Be sure you add the sprinkles before the chocolate sets!
