Can you handle it?
I make this “recipe” every fall…and bring it to at least one of our Thanksgiving gatherings. It’s SO simple but I always come home with an empty bowl!
I’ll warn you though — it’s addicting!

This would be delicious with the caramel apple candy corn, peanuts, and apple flavored jelly belly jelly beans. Maybe some mini milk duds in place of the M&M’s too. Sounds yummy!

I make this every fall except without the pumpkins and M&M’s I just bought the corn and nuts to make another batch. You’re right, it’s very addicting. Tastes like a Payday candy bar. Now I’ve got to get some dark chocolate M&M’s. Yum!
