6This is a good treat sealed in plastic baggies for trick or treaters (whose parents know you) -young and not so young. I like to put it in a pumpkin shaped container for others to help themselves and enjoy.

7Variations: * I sometimes use milk or semi-sweet chocolate chips instead of the vanilla; or I may use 1 bag of the chocolate chips in the mix and use 1 bag of the vanilla chips for the drizzle. * Replace the candy corn (or add to the mix leaving in the candy corn) with M&Ms or mini jellybeans; also you can use mellowcremes, which are like candy corn, but different shapes. * Chocolate covered raisins are a very good addition. * Use any kind of nuts (pecans, cashews, almonds, etc.) in place of the peanuts -or use a mixture of nuts. * During Christmas-time, you can purchase red, green and white candy corn(from Oriental Trading year around -or in stores during the season). Here is a link http://www.orientaltrading.com/christmas-candy-corn-a2-_K2000.fltr * Use your imagination. You can make it as simple or add any variety of nuts, candy, etc., that you want for a snack that is great anytime.
