great party mix! Love the crunch of the pecans and the sweetness of the add ons to the popcorn. I used butterscotch chips with vanilla instead of white chocolate though and omitted the cheerios as I didn't have it on hand. Still, it was great! Mmm! Thanks for a keeper! Will be great for give aways and parties. Made for Aus tag #25.

Pretty much made this as indicated, for a group I host each month, although I did up only half a recipe, this time around! I now have the recipe included in my Holiday Gifts to Make cookbook, so that tells you something! Even passed out a handful of copies of the recipe! Thanks for sharing this wonderful party mix recipe! [Made & reviewed as a kidnapped recipe in the Aus/NZ Recipe Swap #16]
