Halloween Party Mix

My kid's teacher asked for 'non-sweet treats' for a Halloween party. A search of Allrecipes showed there were very few like that, so I took some party mix recipes and made my own. Pretzel sticks = wooden stakes. Animal-shaped crackers = wild beasts. Toasted rice cereal = tombstones.

Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons butter
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

• 7 cups crisp rice cereal squares (such as Rice Chex®)
• 1 cup roasted pumpkin seed kernels
• 1 cup pretzel sticks

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Place butter in a 9x13-inch baking dish; melt in oven while it preheats.

Step 2

Stir Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and seasoned salt into melted butter. Gradually stir rice cereal squares, pumpkin seeds, pretzel sticks, and goldfish crackers into butter mixture until evenly coated.

Step 3

Bake in the preheated oven, stirring every 15 minutes, until crisp and fragrant, about 1 hour. Transfer party mix to paper towel-lined plates to cool.
