Instructions

  1. In large nonstick skillet set over medium-low heat, toast pecans, stirring occasionally, for 3 to 5 minutes or until fragrant. Set aside; let cool.

  2. In same skillet set over medium-low heat, toast pumpkin seeds, stirring occasionally, for about 12 minutes or until golden and fragrant. Set aside; let cool.

  3. In bowl, combine Werther’s Original Caramel Popcorn, pecans, pumpkin seeds and chocolate. Sprinkle with pinch of sea salt.

     

    Tips:

    Substitute walnuts, almonds or cashews for pecans. Use sunflower seeds, pine nuts, toasted coconut, corn nuts, chickpea or lentil snacks for crunchy additions instead of pumpkin seeds. Change up dark chocolate chunks with brownie bits, milk or white chocolate chips. Add savoury twists, like bacon bits, grated Parmesan cheese, smoky almonds, pretzel twists or bagel chips. Season with your favorite spice blend or simply sprinkle with a pinch of cayenne pepper, smoked paprika or freshly ground pepper.

     

    The Sweet Mix

    In bowl, combine Werther’s Original Caramel Popcorn, banana chips, shredded coconut and yogurt-covered raisins.

     

    Tip:

    For variations, rummage through your cupboard for substitutions and have fun creating new taste sensations. Try chopped dried fruit, unsalted toasted nuts or seeds, chocolate-dipped or candy-coated snacks, crumbled cookies, crackers, cereals or even rice cereal treats. Top with a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar or hot chocolate powder for an extra flavour boost.

    Tip:

    Customize the snack mix with your child’s favourite munchies. Use graham cracker treats, unsalted nuts or seeds, dried fruit, coconut chips, yogurt-covered raisins, cereal, granola, mini crackers or chopped fruit leathers. Top with a sprinkle of colourful rainbow sprinkles or candies.
