Easter Snack Mix
By: Minda, Posted: 3/13/2024
Easter is a great time to try out a new snack mix. This year we mixed things up and took some of our favorite Easter treats to create our Easter Snack Mix.
Looking for more sweet treats this Easter holiday try our Easy Tropical Fruit Salad, Best No Bake Cheesecake, and Easy 7 Minute Toffee.
Our Easter Snack Mix
The best thing about a snack mix is you can add whatever you want. You can go sweet. You can go savory. You can go sour or salty. Whatever you crave, do it. It’s Easter time, so we went with sweet. We enjoy the sweet flavors of Easter that help bring back the happy memories that we enjoyed as children. The star of the show is our Biscoff Rice Chex based off of the tasty muddy buddy. We hope you enjoy this snack mix and let us know what you like to add in your Easter Snack Mix.
Ingredients, Substitutions, and Additions
Marshmallows – In our search for the right marshmallows to add to our Easter Snack Mix, we originally thought the pastel colored mini marshmallows from our youth would be the perfect addition. Much to our surprise we could not find them anywhere. But that’s okay. We found something even better. Because it is Easter season, we found Jet-Puffed bunny marshmallows. They are perfect!
Cadbury Mini Eggs – It’s not Easter without Cadbury Mini Eggs in our house. These were a must for our Easter Snack Mix.
Biscoff Cookie Butter – We discovered Biscoff Cookie Butter years ago. It’s one of our favorite things to dip apples and celery in for a sweet treat.
Rice Chex – We are going to combine our cookie butter with some Rice Chex for that classic muddy buddy treat with a twist. Additionally, we will add some plain Rice Chex to the snack mix to help with some of the sweetness from all our other ingredients.
Popcorn – We needed something else to cut some of the sweetness from our snack mix. What’s better that popcorn? We love Skinny Pop popcorn for this but you could pop your own corn. Whatever you like best.
Preferred Pairings for Easter Snack Mix
Need some great entrees and sides for your Easter meal? How about our Ham with Citrus Bourbon Glaze, Oven Roasted Garlic Asparagus, or Homemade Dinner Rolls.
