Here are some other Christmas treats you're sure to love!

It was chilly when I woke up here this morning - cold enough to build a fire in the fireplace. We also put our tree up over the weekend and started decorating the house.

Our Christmas party will be smaller this year, but we will still be entertaining our immediate family and of course, there will need to be appetizers and snacks - like this Christmas Crunch Snack Mix!

That’s why this recipe is perfect for the Homemade Holiday Inspiration posts I’m sharing this month. Each week I’ll share a post filled with recipes, crafts, decorating ideas, and more! I’d encourage you to check out all the posts, click through and bookmark a few that you want to make this Thanksgiving or Christmas season!

I've made popcorn snack mix like this about a million times and for every occasion under the sun - including Easy Easter Bunny Snack Mix and this Fall M&M's & Popcorn Snack Mix and of course... my favorite Candy Corn Snack Mix.

But for whatever reason, I can't remember ever making it for (or around) Christmas. But now I have and I'm calling it Christmas Crunch Popcorn Snack Mix.

You see yesterday, after talking to Amy, who was making some while we chatted... I just could.not.quit. thinking about it. I got a "hankerin'" for it, as my mama used to say. When I woke up today still thinking about it, I told the kids I wanted to make some, so they helped and we mixed up some!

MAKE IT YOUR OWN

I already had the Christmas M&M's on hand ... because that's a staple in everybody's kitchen around Christmas, right? And we always have microwave popcorn and white almond bark.

Those are also staples in our house. As a bonus, I had pretzels (not so common in our house) but Amy's mix had pretzels which made me really want them too!

So, that was that... about 5 minutes later we had a delicious afternoon snack ready. Unfortunately, being the mean blogging Mommy that I am, I tortured the kids by not letting them eat any until I took pictures and checked pictures and then more pictures... just so I could share it with YOU! Now that I think about it - my kids should be mad at YOU, not ME, right?

Just kidding. I think 😉
