This Halloween party mix features corn cereal dyed in orange, green, and purple, then baked with a savory seasoning blend. After baking, pretzel sticks and Cheetos Bag of Bones are added for extra crunch. Store in an airtight container to keep for up to 5 days.

Directions

Heat oven to 300°F. Grease a 9x13 pan with cooking spray.

Melt butter, separate into three medium bowls. Stir orange food coloring into one, green into another, purple into the third. Mix well; colors won't fully blend.

Add 2 cups corn cereal to each bowl, toss to coat. Cereal will take on the color.

Arrange colored cereal in pan: orange on one side, green in middle, purple on other side. Set aside.

In a small bowl, mix Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, chili powder, dry mustard, and BBQ seasoning. Stir until combined.

Pour seasoning mix over the cereals. Gently toss each colored section to coat.

Bake 10 minutes. Remove and stir all colors together. Bake another 10 minutes.

Remove from oven, add pretzel sticks, and toss to combine.

Cool for 20 minutes, then add Cheetos Bag of Bones. Toss to combine.

Store in airtight container for up to 5 days.
