Chex Mix

I have a small obsession with this treat. I can't stop eating it. I think I may be addicted. My grandma always made it with slivered almonds and coconut. I am not really a fan of those so I switched them out for Mini Reeses Pieces. Not only does it look Halloweeny, but it was a way to get one of my favorite candies into my favorite treat.
