I’ll put candy corn in pretty much anything – fudge, brownies, cake – you name it! So, as you can imagine, this Candy Corn based snack mix is a huge hit with me. Now, I know candy corn can be polarizing. Some of you love it while others hate it with a passion.

Four easy ingredients are all you need!:

You can buy the popcorn pre-popped in bags in the chip aisle at your local grocery store, or pop your own at home. This microwave popcorn popper is super easy to use, comes in 14 colors, and gets amazing reviews.
