During this hectic season, a good movie — paired with a great snack — is one of the best ways to unwind while getting into the spirit of the season. Of course you'll want to include popcorn in your movie night snack lineup. And here's a way to make it more interesting—combine it with chocolate chips, peanuts, and dried fruit, for a more indulgent viewing experience. The thing I find with make-at-home-snacks is you have to keep it relatively simple and realistic.
Best Movie Night Snacks
With onion powder, cheesy nutritional yeast, and a hint of spice from chili powder, these practically taste like Pringles. It never fails to surprise us just how versatile chickpeas are—when roasted, they can substitute as a higher-protein alternative to popcorn. Here, they’re dusted with fragrant spices such as paprika, chili, and turmeric. But feel free to throw on any of your favorite popcorn flavorings—even sweet ones work.
Whip this popcorn recipe together with ingredients you have on hand and your teens will flip. This easy snack not only looks amazing, it also tastes amazing! Just eight simple ingredients (seven if you don’t favor jalapenos) and you’ll have 20 servings to feed a bunch of hungry teenagers.

Churros have to be one of my favorite treats so when I saw this recipe I knew I had to jump on it. The best way to envoy these chocolates is by combining them with the movie you are watching. Try to combine the crunchiness of the M&M’s Crispy with an explosive action movie, or try the Caramel M&M’s with a heartbreaking drama.
On their own, raisins taste kind of healthy, but Raisinets solve this problem by coating them in milk chocolate. The raisins lend a satisfyingly chewy texture and a complex flavor to the chocolate. While Nestle points out that "Raisinets have 30% less fat than leading chocolate brands," keep in mind that they pack in 28 grams of sugar in each serving, not exactly healthy. This dish really benefits from homemade chips or "restaurant-style" chips found in the grocery store.

An old-timey, classic holiday movie deserves to be paired with an equally old-timey, classic (and delicious!) snack.

There’s no way I’d tackle more than two of these recipes in any one given night. But that being said, there are some great classics here, from roasted nuts to nachos and hummus. Some are more complex than others, but I made it a point to choose very do-able recipes that you could easily make in an afternoon in preparing for a few good flicks. Tell us we weren’t the only ones who snuck bags of gummy bears into movie theaters as kids and demolished them.

According to Merriam-Webster, nonpareil means "having no equal," so the name of these candies suggests that their taste is unmatchable. Maybe if they had a less arrogant name, they would benefit from lower expectations. Unlike many movie candies, Sno-Caps are made with semi-sweet rather than milk chocolate.
According to OldTimeCandy.com, Mike and Ikes have been around since 1940. Unlike many candies from the first half of the 20th century, Mikes and Ikes still taste acceptable to modern palates, although they're not going to knock your socks off. Unlike many multi-colored "fruit" candies , the colors actually signify noticeable differences in flavor. You can even buy single-flavor boxes, although your local cinema probably only stocks the original mixed package.
