Ingredients
- 6 cups Chex cereal
- 3 cups Honey Nut Cheerios
- 1 cup mini pretzels twists
- 1 cup peanut lightly salted roasted
- 2 cups M&M's holiday
- 20 oz. white chocolate chips melting
- 2 tablespoons Sprinkles Christmas
Instructions
- Toss together the chex cereal, cheerios, pretzel twists, and roasted peanuts in an extra large mixing bowl.
- Pour the mix onto a large rimmed baking sheet.
- Sprinkle the M&M candies on top of the cereal mixture.
- Melt the white chocolate melting chips. Place the chips in a microwave safe-bowl and heat on high power for 60 seconds. Stir well to finish melting and smoothing out the chocolate. (If any large chunks remain, melt for another 15 seconds and stir, stir, stir until the chocolate is melted and smooth. Keep an eye on it because white chocolate burns very easily.)
- Drizzle the melted white chocolate over the cereal mixture immediately.
- Sprinkle the holiday sprinkles on top of the white chocolate to ensure it sticks.
- Use a spoon, rubber spatula or clean hands to mix and toss the mixture to evenly distribute the white chocolate before it sets. Work quickly because the chocolate sets up faster than you might imagine.
- Let the mixture rest for 15 minutes so that the chocolate can finish cooling and setting.
- Use your hands to break up any large chunks of the mixture.
- Transfer to a large serving bowl, and enjoy!
Notes
- How to store: Store leftover mix in an airtight container on the counter for up to 4 days.
- Substitution Notes:
- Chex Mix
- Cheerios
- Pretzels
- Other tips and tricks:
- Chex Mix: You can use a combination of rice and corn or all one variety. These photos show 3 cups Rice Chex and 3 cups Corn Chex.
- Cheerios: You can substitute regular Cheerios for the Honey Nut variety in this recipe.
- Pretzels: You may use pretzel twists, as shown here, or rods!
- Evenly sprinkle on the sprinkles the moment you are done drizzling on the white chocolate so that it sticks to the chocolate. Otherwise, the chocolate will start to set and the sprinkles will fall off.
- The easiest way to mix the melted white chocolate into the mixture is on a large tray or baking sheet. You quickly and evenly distribute the melted chocolate before it starts to set.
