"An easy-peasy Fall Bake Sale favorite! And no baking whatsoever! What's not to like? You can even make the kids do it. We package this in snack-size zipper bags with the printed recipe found in the instructions below and sell for 75 cents each. Besides a tasty little snack, it's really cute. Just be sure to shop around for cute Halloween clip art when you're making "labels" for your snack bags. You can get about six recipes in two columns with font size 10, depending on your clip art. Since the yield depends on the size of your snack bags, that is up to you, and prep time includes the time it takes to fill the bags and attach the "recipe"."

This is a very easy recipe to prepare. I ended up doubling it, just to get the M&Ms and chocolate morsels out of the house. I used ziploc sandwich bags. Filling them up about halfway, I was able to get 24 bags out of a double recipe. I found the easiest way to fill these was to put the popcorn & pretzels in first, then add the other ingredients I had mixed together in a large bowl. When I mixed the popcorn & pretzels into the whole recipe, I wasn't able to get an even blend of ingredients. Thanks for sharing.
