Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Chex cereal (any variety)
- 2 cups Pretzel twists or sticks
- 1 cup Candy corn
- 1 cup Mini marshmallows
- 1 cup Salted peanuts (optional, for a nut-free version, omit or substitute)
- 1 cup Halloween-themed chocolate candies (e.g., M&M's or Reese's Pieces)
- 1.5 cups White chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
- 0.25 cup Halloween sprinkles
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the Chex cereal, pretzel twists, candy corn, mini marshmallows, peanuts (if using), and Halloween-themed chocolate candies. Mix well to evenly distribute the ingredients.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the white chocolate chips and vegetable oil. Microwave in 30-second increments, stirring after each interval, until the white chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
Pour the melted white chocolate over the cereal mix in the large bowl. Gently toss everything together using a spatula to ensure the mix is evenly coated in the white chocolate.
Spread the coated party mix out onto a large sheet of wax or parchment paper on a flat surface. Work quickly to spread it into an even layer before the white chocolate hardens.
While the mix is still wet, sprinkle the Halloween sprinkles evenly over the top for added color and festiveness.
Let the party mix sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes or until the white chocolate hardens completely.
Once the mix is set, break it into bite-sized pieces and transfer to a serving bowl or an airtight container for storage.
Serve and enjoy at your Halloween party, or package it into small treat bags for festive gifts!
