The kids have Valentine’s Parties coming up soon at school, so I thought I would start thinking about sweet treats now. I love Valentines Day because it is all about love and kindness. Some may think it is overly mushy but I think it is fantastic! Plus my daughters birthdays fall awful close to valentines which means I get to take advantage of all the pink and red decorations for birthdays! 😉

This yumminess is like chex mix married muddy buddies. It is such a tasty treat, I dare you to eat just a little bit! My kids mixed in sprinkles, conversation hearts, and red M&MS. However, you could mix in any red and pink candies….they came up with a list, just in case you needed some help.

Red M&Ms
Twizzler Bites (not gluten free)
Red Skittles
Conversation hearts
Red & Pink Runts
Red & Pink Jelly Beans
Red & Pink Mike & Ikes
Peppermints
Valentine candy corn
Nerds

You need to mix up a batch of this and give it a try! It’s so good!
