My kids love special treats that are a mixture of things like marshmallows, crackers, candies, etc. I thought it would be awesome to make an Easter Snack Mix that requires no cooking at all.
We seem to be fans of salt sweet things.
Really, anything with marshmallows in it, my kids think is a special treat.
This snack makes a lot and can be stored in an air tight container and used over the course of many days, or taken to a big event where you are celebrating Easter.
{And, it is easy enough that the kids can help!}
Ingredients:
- 1 cup of jelly beans (optional, we’ve made it with and without)
- 1 cup of Milk Chocolate M&M’s (they have Easter colors right now!)
- 2 cups Goldfish crackers (this is for the salty aspect)
- 1 cup of small marshmallows
Dump all of the items into a large bowl.
Use your hands or a couple of spoons to mix everything up.
If you are serving this now you can use cute little Easter cups. I found these a few years ago in the Dollar Spot at Target a couple of years ago.
You can also put the snack mix in cello bags if you’re giving as a gift and use that printable I linked to above.
Or, just serve the mix as an afternoon snack with a glass of milk, like we did.
Super easy snack and the kids love it!
This keeps for a while in an air tight container if you want to make a batch and serve it each afternoon for a snack.

Darling! Thank you for sharing. 🙂
Very cute but would only be a special treat because that is soooo much sugar for a little snack, at least for my boys. However, I know my boys would love this. Thanks for sharing!
