Fall Chex Mix

I am in love with this Fall chex mix recipe. It has the sweetness and the salty components with my personal favorite, candy corn! I also love the twist of a traditional chex mix recipe with the Reese's puffs. this mix has the perfect blend of sweet, salty, peanut butter, cinnamon, and everything in between. I keep this on hand season, and it's so easy to make! You could even hand it out as little trick or treat goodie bags! Keep reading to see how I make this super fun and easy chex mix!
