    Santa Hat Party Mix

     

    Here’s what you’ll need…

    Bugles

    Red Melting disks

    Mini marshmallows

    White sprinkles (I used nonpareils)

    Melt the candy melts, along with a tablespoon of shortening (to help thin the melted candy), in 30 second intervals on half power in your microwave until melted.

    Immediately start dipping.

    Let them set up for 10 minutes or so on parchment or wax paper.

    When they are set, remelt the red candy disk (if necessary) and dip just the bottoms (the large part of the Bugle) into the white sprinkles.

    Then flip it over and dip the top in the melted candy and press a mini marshmallow on top.

    And voila…Bugle Santa Hats!

    If you want to use the hats as an addition to a mix here’s an idea for a sweet and salty mix that’s easy and yummy.

    Feel free to play around with the additions and make it your own!

    3 cups mini pretzels

    1/2 cup craisins

    1 cup salted dry roasted peanuts

    2 cups Rice Chex

    2 cups holiday colored M&M’s

    8 oz. white chocolate for melting

    Spread all your ingredients, EXCEPT M&M’s, out on a baking sheet lined with parchment or wax paper.

    Melt your white chocolate according to package directions and drizzle over the pretzel mix.

    Transfer into a large bowl and coat mix with chocolate.

    Return to baking sheet to allow to dry.

    When chocolate is set, sprinkle M&M’s and Bugle Santa Hats over the mix.

    Transfer to big bowl to serve!
