Spicy and Sweet Chex Mix Recipes
Ok, friends and family – you asked for my “secret” Pumpkin Spice Chex Mix recipes – so here they are.
BUT, they aren’t secret recipes (anymore ha!)
Pumpkin Spice Chex Snack Mix
This Chex snack mix with pumpkin spice is one of my family’s favorites (it must be the M&M’s in the Chex Mix because I can’t make it fast enough haha!) The combination of sweet and salty mixed with the pumpkin spice flavoring is just plain addicting – you can’t stop eating it!
and yes, Susan, this is the Chex Mix your Bob LOVES so much!

Pumpkin Spice Chex Mix with Candy Corn
This is another family favorite Pumpkin Spice Chex Mix we make all the time – the candy corn in this snack mix is SUCH a sweet boost of flavor, too.
I think the real “secret” to this Pumpkin Spice snack mix is the cinnamon she adds in her recipe.
INGREDIENTS:
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted
1 cup packed brown sugar
3 tablespoons pumpkin spice
2 tablespoons vanilla extract
1 (12 oz) box cinnamon Chex cereal
1 (12 oz) box honey nut Chex cereal
4 cups pretzels
1 (21 oz) bag autumn/harvest candy mix (or plain candy corn)
