I came across a recipe on a German cooking forum that caught my interest. After I saw that it uses 8 ounces of nuts and two other ingredients I can’t find in the US, I knew I had to change some things!
Nuts here are so unbelievably expensive, I am still not used to that. So if I would really make this with only nuts, this would be a super expensive tart to make! But I knew the dollar store has big bags of trail mix and why not making a tart out of that 
With using that, you have crunchy, sweet, salty and gooey in one and everyone will be satisfied!
Please feel free to substitute the sugar in the crust with sweetener, I do that too!
