Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or wax paper for easy cleanup.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the Rice Chex cereal, mini pretzels, salted peanuts, mini marshmallows, M&M's candy, and cornflakes. Gently mix to evenly distribute the ingredients, taking care not to crush the cereal.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the white chocolate chips and vegetable shortening. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring well after each session, until the mixture is fully melted and smooth. Be careful not to overheat the white chocolate, as it can seize up.
Pour the melted white chocolate mixture over the snack mix in the large bowl. Use a spatula to gently fold and coat all the ingredients evenly in the melted chocolate.
Spread the coated snack mix in a single layer onto the prepared baking sheet. Use the spatula to separate any large clumps.
Let the mixture cool and set at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or place it in the refrigerator for quicker hardening.
Once the mixture is completely set, break it into bite-sized chunks and transfer to an airtight container for storage.
Serve immediately or store at room temperature for up to a week. Enjoy as a sweet-and-salty treat for any occasion!
