Witch’s Brew Treat Recipe
This fun idea provided by Sherri Osborn.
“A little bit of tasty, Halloween fun! This is a Halloween snack mix recipe my son’s class made for a classroom treat. The teacher sent home a letter requesting each student bring 1 – 2 cups of two of the spooky ingredients listed. On the designated date, the class mixed all their ingredients together in a large, plastic witch’s cauldron. Make sure you not only have cups or bowls on hand for eating this Halloween snack mix right away, but also zip top baggies so everyone can take some home!
