I have really been trying to eat healthier at home lately which is not easy to do with a constantly snacking toddler. Since this new healthy venture includes a LOT of veggies, protein and fruit I decided I needed a little treat. This TWIX Bites Party Mix was just what I needed. A good combo of salty sweet with peanuts, popcorn, Chex and chocolaty TWIX Bites.
My kiddo and I headed to Walmart to grab all of our ingredients for the party mix. She got a little crazy once we hit the candy aisle. I don't know if it was the sugar in the air or what but we had to grab our ingredients and leave before the full meltdown occurred.
A couple days later we made this tasty TWIX Bites Party Mix and it was oh so delicious! It was just the afternoon snack I needed after a long day. A cup of coffee and a handful of warm, chocolatey, crunchy - goodness.
The flavors really come together with the cinnamon, brown sugar and butter mixture. I kept the sugar and butter quantity down to keep it lower in calories.
My kiddo of course gobbled this snack right up. She isn't a big fan of the peanuts though which I find funny since she loves peanut butter. It must be a texture thing. She found as many TWIX Bites as she could. I hope you enjoy!

I love TWIX! This is the party bowl I want to have! And if I get too lazy to make it, I can still eat the candy by itself!
