- 4 cups Lucky Charms limited edition clovers
- 10.5 ounce bag of Mint M&M's

Instructions
- In a large bowl combine Rice Chex, Lucky Charms, pretzels, popcorn and M&Ms. In a heat-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate in the microwave for 30 seconds on 50% power. Stir and repeat until the chips are completely melted.
- Pour the melted white chocolate over the cereal mixture. Stir carefully to combine, as to not crush the Rice Chex. Stir until the mixture is completely coated with the white chocolate.
