Caramelized Party Mix Recipe



This is an easy snack to make.  It is very addicting.  I love changing it up by adding cranberries, chocolate chips, raisins and all different nuts.  The flavor is rich and buttery. I created a label for it and put the mix in a nice plastic container with a lid to keep it fresh.




I bought these cute little burlap bags for favors.  They hold a nice amount for friends and family.
I bought them at Michaels. I glued on some fall leaves for the season. I also visited the dollar store and picked up some holiday cellophane treat bags.

  6. Hello Linda! The season is beginning! We are getting our first snow, but not much in the city. Up north however, they are getting a blizzard. It's cozy to prepare for the cold months! Enjoy and happy Thanksgiving!
