Ingredients

  • 2 cups Chex Mix corn
  • 1 cup Cheerios plain
  • ½ cup pretzel twists small
  • 6 ounces white chocolate candy wafers are my favorite but you can use white chocolate chips as well
  • ½ cup M&Ms holiday - red and green
  • 4 tablespoon sprinkles holiday - red and green

Instructions

  • First, line a large baking sheet with parchment paper to minimize mess. Since this won't be going into the oven, you can certainly substitute wax paper.
  • Measure out the Chex cereal, Cheerios, and pretzel twists, and place into a large Ziploc bag.
    2 cups Chex Mix, 1 cup Cheerios , ½ cup pretzel twists
  • Place the white chocolate into a microwave safe bowl and follow the instructions on the label regarding melting. It's usually about 15 seconds on high, stir, return and repeat until you have beautifully melted chocolate. I have found that different brands have different instructions, so, to ensure the best outcome, read the label.

  • Pour the chocolate over the cereal mixture in the bag, seal, and shake it up in the bag.
  • Add the M&M's and holiday sprinkles to the bag and give it a few more gentle shakes.
    ½ cup M&Ms, 4 tablespoon sprinkles
  • Pour the mixture out onto the cookie sheet spreading evenly.
  • Place in the refrigerator for about 60 minutes. Remove and break into pieces. Serve!
