Ok, I hope you guys are ready for a difficult recipe. This one is a doozy. You ready?!
So, to make Monster Munch, all you need to do is throw a bunch of crap in a bowl and mix it together. I know. So complicated.
If you want to cut some of the sugar, then I would start with choosing a lower sugar cereal, such as plain Cherrios, Kix, or Chex. I would also omit or cut down on the candy corn. Although it totally rocks, let’s face it, it’s pure sugar deliciousness.
This recipe is so stupid easy, I’m just going to give you a list of ingredients that would work well. Whatever you decide to use, you really can’t go wrong because monsters will eat anything. Serve it in a large bowl at your Halloween party or scoop some into cute treat bags or jars to give as party favors!
Ingredients
- cereal - Cherrios, Chex, Kix (any variety of these that you prefer)
- M&M's
- pretzels
- peanuts
- candy corn
- Mellocreme pumpkins
- popcorn
- gummy worms
Instructions
- Combine ingredients in a large serving bowl or divide amongst party treat bags.

What a tasty mix of sweet and salty – very colourful too. You know what’s so interesting… I almost never come across candy corn here in Canada… but I think it’s very popular in the States, yes?
Love this combo, sure going to try for Halloween party.

What a gorgeous looking loaf. I’m amazed you managed to tweak the recipe so healthily. Really, this is quite the achievement, Stephanie. Texture, above all, is important to bread and yours is spot on!
