Instructions
- Combine the white chocolate chips, peanut butter and butter in a microwave-safe bowl.
- Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring after each time until everything is just melted and combined.
- Stir in the salt and vanilla extract until incorporated.
- Measure the Chex cereal and pretzels into a gallon-sized zip-top bag. (You could also add it to a very large mixing bowl.)
- Pour the melted chocolate mix over the cereal mixture. Seal the bake and shake until cereal is well coated. Let it cool for 2 minutes.
- Add the powdered sugar to the bag, and shake vigorously to coat everything.
- Add in the M&M’s and crushed candy canes. Shake until just combined.
- Store the reindeer chow in the ziptop bag until ready to serve.
Notes

- To make this recipe gluten free, use Gluten Free Chex Cereal and gluten free pretzels.
- To make this recipe vegan and dairy free, swap out the butter for a plant-based butter alternative and leave out the M&M’s. Use vegan white chocolate, too.
