Ingredients
- 3 cups Rice Chex cereal
- 3 cups Corn Chex cereal
- 2 cups Mini pretzels
- 1.5 cups Honey-roasted peanuts
- 1 cup Holiday-colored candy-coated chocolates (e.g., M&Ms)
- 1.5 cups White chocolate chips
- 2 teaspoons Vegetable oil
- 0.25 cups Festive sprinkles
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the Rice Chex, Corn Chex, mini pretzels, and honey-roasted peanuts. Stir gently to mix the ingredients evenly.
Step 2
In a microwave-safe bowl, add the white chocolate chips and vegetable oil. Microwave on medium power for 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until the white chocolate is fully melted and smooth (approximately 1.5 - 2 minutes total).
Step 3
Immediately pour the melted white chocolate over the snack mix. Use a large spatula to gently toss the mix, ensuring each piece is lightly coated with the melted chocolate.
Step 4
Add the holiday-colored candy-coated chocolates and sprinkles to the mixture. Stir gently to distribute them throughout the mix.
Step 5
Spread the snack mix onto a large sheet of wax or parchment paper in an even layer. Let it sit at room temperature for approximately 30 minutes, or until the chocolate sets and hardens.
Step 6
Once the snack mix has hardened, break it into small clusters or chunks as desired. Transfer to an airtight container or resealable bags for storage.
Step 7
Serve immediately or package in decorative holiday bags or tins for gifting. Enjoy!
