In a large bowl, mix ingredients well.
Save small sprinkles and marshmallows to add at the end – sprinkles will fall to bottom of snack mix, and marshmallows dry out quickly when exposed to air.

Tips To Perfect S’mores Snack Mix and FAQs

For a bit more flavor, try mixing snack mix, then spreading out on a baking sheet lined with parchment or wax paper. Drizzle melted chocolate over the snack mix, then let set. Scoop up and add back to bowl to serve.
Sprinkle in a little salt or some red hots for a bit of a salty or spicy kick.
Add Reese’s peanut butter cups or Reese’s pieces if peanut butter is ok to serve at your school.
Try adding in chocolate chunks or bits of chopped up Snickers for more flavor!

FAQs

How long can I store snack mix?

Since we’re not using any dairy in this recipe, it can last for up to two weeks, when stored in an airtight container – however your marshmallows may dry out.

How do I store snack mix?

Keep leftovers in a cool, dry place. If making ahead of time, consider leaving marshmallows out until just before serving, since they dry out quickly.

Can I use other candy?

The sky is the limit! Use candies you love the taste of, and have fun!

Do I have to use Golden Grahams?

We’re trying to mimic the taste of s’mores with this recipe – you can use any cereal you’d like as the base or swap the Grahams out for corn Chex.
