Overview

Quick story time: every year my Mom's side of the family (this includes 17 of us cousins) goes up to northern Wisconsin for a week vacation. My Auntie Sally brings this insanely delicious and addictive snack mix and it's gone within days. Well, that vacation just so happens to be this week and while I'm unfortunately unable to be up there this year, I'm making up for it by recreating her snack mix and sharing it with you.

Honestly, I'm not usually a fan of party mixes. But this one has a little bit of salty and a lot of sweet. It's wildly addictive in all the good ways.

This mix is perfect for a family party, summer BBQ or even all to yourself as you sit and binge watch TLC shows... (just me?).
