Sweet Snacks & Teacher Gift Idea with M&M’S® Crispy

A good snack can help fuel your work – and it’s even better when that snack is delicious, sweet and has fewer calories than some other options. For me, I spend a lot of time at my desk and sometimes all I need is a handful from my jar of M&M’S® Crispy.

M&M’S® Crispy are a satisfying chocolate treat that have a sweet rice puff center. Crispy and crunchy and coated in the world-famous candy shell. These popular treats are back by popular demand since January 2015 – hitting shelves for the first time since 2005! In fact, these were the No. 1 most requested variety to bring back from 2005 – 2014.

At just 180 calories per singles pack, I’m glad these are back. Now, a sweet snack doesn’t need to sacrifice the diet. Put M&M’S® Crispy in a jar on your desk and you’ll always have a simple snack nearby I labeled mine, Help Yourself – for guests and myself! Everyone loves grabbing some during a meeting, or when stopping by — and for me, it’s a great option while I’m getting some work done.

These jars filled with M&M’S® Crispy make a great back-to-school gift, too! As my son gears up for 1st grade, and my twin girls are starting preschool, I know these candy filled jars are perfect for their teachers. A great snack during or after a busy day of teaching!

Another way I enjoy these is on top of my favorite frozen greek yogurt. They add the perfect crunch and taste that takes your frozen dessert from boring to amazing, without all the calories.

With Fall on the way, I can think of so many snack ideas for my M&M’S® Crispy – like topping for coated apples, baked into oatmeal cookies and so MUCH more.
