HEB PB & Chocolate Lovers Trail Mix

I love trail mix, chocolate, and peanut butter. Last time I was in HEB picking up Bridget's standard trail mix that she likes, I couldn't help but notice that HEB was making a PB & Chocolate lovers trail mix. I thought that this was something that I definitely wasn't going to pass up.
I picked it up and began testing it almost before I left the store. However, I was slowed up a bit by what HEB thought was a good compliment to the PB & Chocolate mix; chocolate caramel bites. What's this? It slows up every bit of goodness and doesn't really compliment any of the other ingredients. I thought, this needs to be improved. So I bought another bag, and measured out all of the individual ingredients. This is what the original mix contains:

1/4 cup Roasted Almonds
1/4 cup Chocolate Caramel Bites
1/4 cup Honey Roasted Sesame Sticks
1/2 cup Chocolate Chips
1/2 Cup Peanuts
1/6 cup Peanut Butter Drops

After measuring it out, I then bought my own ingredients to make this mix, but without the distracting caramel bites. This is what I ended up using:

1/4 cup Roasted Almonds Lightly-Salted
1/4 cup Honey Roasted Sesame Sticks
1/2 cup Milk Chocolate Chips
1/2 Cup Unsalted Dry-Roasted Peanuts 
1/4 cup Peanut Butter Chips



And this is the final mix after properly mixing. Enjoy!
