Ingredients
- 12 cups Popcorn air-popped
- 3 cups pretzels mini-twist
- 1 cup roasted salted peanuts
- 1 cup candy corn
- 1 cup Reese’s Pieces
- ¼ cup butter unsalted
- ¼ cup honey
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup peanut butter creamy
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- Candy Melts optional, for garnish, orange
- Sprinkles optional, for garnish, orange
Instructions
- Mix the popcorn, pretzels, peanuts, candy corn, and Reese’s Pieces in a very large bowl and spread out onto two large rimmed baking pans.
- Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the honey and sugar and stir until smooth. Stop stirring, allow the mixture to come to a boil, and cook for about 5 minutes, tilting the pan occasionally to make sure there are no signs of burning. The mixture should smell caramelized and be a bit darkened in color. Remove from the heat and carefully stir in the peanut butter, salt, and heavy cream.
- Quickly drizzle the peanut butter caramel over the party mix on the sheet pans, then toss to coat with two large spoons. Drizzle with melted orange candy melts and sprinkle with sprinkles, if using. Let the party mix cool on the sheet pans, then transfer to bowls for serving, breaking up any large pieces if needed.
