Easy, Delicious Party Mix for the Holidays
A party isn’t a party until you bust out the snacks. And this Holiday Party Mix really knows how to party. A delicious mix of sweet and salty, chewy and crunchy treats, it’s the perfect snack mix to serve at your holiday get togethers this season!
It’s one of my absolute favorite treats to take to holiday parties and serve out of an adorable Santa Feet Snack Bowl, to give as delicious gifts to friends in these cute holiday tins, and to keep a big clear jar full of on our kitchen counter throughout the season to snack on. So festive and yummy!
It also makes a great gift for teachers. I love to put some in a wide mouth jar with a red lid, tie a festive ribbon on it and share the snack mix love!
What Makes a Great Snack Mix?
I think I’m pretty close to reaching expert status when it comes to snack mixes. I know a great one when I taste it. It’s got to have lots of fun textures and a mix of salty and sweet flavors. And this mix delivers! Candy coated popcorn, cereal and pretzels, soft chewy mini marshmallow, M&Ms with a crunch candy shell and salty roasted peanuts. It’s ALL in there, y’all.

large mixing bowl with nonstick cooking spray, then add the popcorn, chocolate square cereal, toasted oat cereal, waffle-shaped pretzels, mini pretzels and peanuts.
In a heavy medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the corn syrup, sugar, butter, and salt. Bring to a full boil, stirring frequently, for 1 minute. Remove from the heat, and stir in the vanilla and baking soda.
Pour the syrup over the popcorn mixture and stir gently to coat evenly. Spread the mixture into an even layer on the prepared baking sheet and immediately sprinkle with the nonpareils, M&M’s Minis and marshmallows.
