I have made it for Halloween every year since and sometimes at Christmas also. For Halloween, I use candy corn and Halloween M&Ms. For Christmas, I use those bell shaped candies or anything similar to red/green candy corn and Christmas red and green M&Ms. It is always requested by friends and it will be the first to go in a Bake Sale. Sweet and Salty. Ingredients:
11 ounces little pretzel twists |
10 1/2 ounces ritz crackers, peanut butter mini snack sandwiches |

1/2 cup light corn syrup |
2 tablespoons vanilla |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
10 ounces m&m's plain chocolate candy |
18 1/2 ounces candy corn |
Directions:
1. Combine first 4 ingredients in large bowl.
