    I made this for halloween following the recipe as directed. Easter is tomorrow and I decided to make this recipe again however; rather then using Brach’s harvest mix I used a easter blend of this which has pastel, blues, greens, pinks and yellow shaped candies. Looks terrific, I’m calling it rabbit food. 🙂 Thank you for a simple, yet terrific treat. Everyone loves this when I make it. 🙂

    Made these today for my daughter’s kindergarten party tomorrow. I used M&M’s instead of peanuts since she doesn’t like peanuts and it’s really good. I would have preferred the peanuts myself, but that’s ok. Thanks for this!!

    These are just adorable and would be perfect for a Halloween Party!!
    As a veteran of “texting teens” it all comes down to knowing your kids and who they “hang” with (and confiscating phones periodically to check!!) Happy to say so far so good!!!
