Peppermint Crunch Mix

• 6 cups popped popcorn (I use white natural)
• 4 cups Honey Nut Chex
• 1 (7 ounce) jar marshmallow creme
• 20 red hard peppermint candies or 20 green hard peppermint candies, crushed (1/2 cup, I crush them quite fine)

1. Heat oven to 350u0b0.
2. Spray cookie sheet with cooking spray.
3. Mix popcorn and cereal in large bowl; set aside.
4. Place marshmallow creme in medium microwaveable bowl.
5. Microwave uncovered on High about 2 minutes, stirring after 1 minute, until melted; stir again.
6. Pour over popcorn mixture; stir until evenly coated.
7. Sprinkle with candies.
8. Spread mixture on cookie sheet.
9. Bake 5 minutes; stir.
10. Bake about 5 minutes longer or until coating is light golden brown.
11. Spread on waxed paper or aluminum foil to cool.
12. Store tightly covered up to 2 weeks.
13. If you are in a pinch for time, buy an already popped bag of gourmet white popcorn.
14. Depends on the occasion, but I add red hots, or candy corn, or M&Ms or nuts.
15. Use your imagination.
16. BE SURE TO REMOVE ALL UNPOPPED KERNELS.
17. WE DON'T WANT ANY CHIPPED TEETH.
