Monster Munch
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 stuff in a bowl and mix it together. I know. So complicated, but it’s oh so much fun for the kiddos and it’s really addictive and yummy! sI’m not going to lie, although this is really for little monsters, big monsters will love it too!
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. Use your imagination and add any other ingredients you think would be fun. Serve it in a large bowl at your Halloween party or scoop some into cute treat bags or jars to give as party favors!

Love it! I made something very similar to this last year but I did a savory chex mix version and then added the candy. That way I could eat more! A little sweeeeeet……a little saaaaalty! YUM! :)
Nice, lovely combination!!!
what an incredibly cute idea and great choice on creating a sweet and salty combination.
I love snack mixes way too much, love the colours in this!
This is my first snack mix that I see for Halloween. I have seen tons of kinds for Christmas but how nice you made Halloween version! Cuteee… :)
sometimes the best snacks are the simplest ones. i like the name you chose for these snacks… so perfect for halloween…heheh :)
I love complicated recipes like this..LOL!
Love how easy snack mixes can be – this looks fun and festive!
I need a simple snack like this in my life! (Except I maybe don’t? You know what I mean…) :)
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.
Cut out the sugar? Make it healthy? No way! It looks delicious as is. Love it!
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!
Thank you, Viviane! Yogurt works wonders!
