Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Chex cereal (rice or corn)
- 2 cups Mini pretzels
- 1 cup Peanut butter chips
- 1 cup Mini marshmallows
- 1 cup Red and green chocolate candies (e.g., M&M’s)
- 1 cup White chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons Sprinkles (holiday-themed)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the Chex cereal, mini pretzels, peanut butter chips, mini marshmallows, and red and green chocolate candies. Gently mix the ingredients to evenly distribute them.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate chips in 20-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until smooth and fully melted.
Drizzle the melted white chocolate over the cereal mixture in the bowl. Using a silicone spatula or large spoon, gently fold the mixture to coat everything evenly with the chocolate.
Immediately sprinkle the holiday-themed sprinkles over the top of the mixture before the white chocolate hardens.
Spread the coated mixture onto a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper or wax paper. Let it sit at room temperature for about 20 minutes to allow the chocolate to fully set.
Once the mixture is hardened, break apart any large clumps and transfer the reindeer food to a serving bowl or divide it into individual gift bags for sharing.
Enjoy this sweet and salty holiday snack!
