I love sweet and salty snack mixes, and this bunny bait mix is just that. The sweetness of white chocolate and peanut butter eggs mixed with the saltiness of peanuts and pretzels. Target sells a version of bunny bait that also has small cookies and white chocolate covered marshmallows. Ours includes popcorn because we’re kind of big on popcorn in our family. So yummy.
