Notes

Tips:

Let the mix cool all the way down before you add any candy.
Boo-terscotch M&M's were a one-season release in 2016 and are not coming back. Fall M&M's or butterscotch chips are what to use.
Caramel Bugles come in a 6 ounce bag.

Storage:

Keep it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. It is a good one to make a day or two ahead.
