Sweet & Salty 4th of July Snack Mix Recipe


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups air-popped popcorn

  • 2 cups mini pretzels (twists or sticks)

  • 1 ½ cups red and blue M&Ms or candy-coated chocolates

  • 1 cup yogurt-covered raisins or mini marshmallows

  • 1 ½ cups Rice Chex or corn cereal squares

  • 1 cup white chocolate chips or melting wafers


Instructions

Step 1: Mix the Base

  1. In a large bowl, combine popcorn, pretzels, cereal, yogurt raisins or marshmallows, and candy.

  2. Gently toss everything together so it’s evenly mixed.

Step 2: Melt and Drizzle

  1. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt white chocolate chips or wafers in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth.

  2. Drizzle melted chocolate over the mix while stirring to coat pieces lightly.

  3. Optional: sprinkle with red, white, and blue sprinkles before the chocolate sets.

Step 3: Cool and Set

  1. Spread the mixture on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

  2. Let it cool for 15–20 minutes or until chocolate is set.

Step 4: Serve or Store

 

  1. Break into clusters if needed.

  2. Serve in bowls, jars, or treat bags—or store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.

Notes

Always check candy labels for allergens—many contain or are processed near common allergens like nuts, dairy, or gluten.
