Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 4 cups rice or corn square cereal
- 2 cups mini marshmallows
- 1 cup vanilla yogurt-covered raisins or pretzels
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup pretzel sticks or mini twists
Chocolate
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to create a non-stick surface for the snack mix to cool and set properly.
- Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix together the cereal, mini marshmallows, vanilla yogurt-covered raisins or pretzels, mini chocolate chips, and pretzel sticks until evenly distributed.
- Melt White Chocolate: Place the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
- Coat Snack Mix: Drizzle the melted white chocolate over the combined snack ingredients, then gently toss everything together to ensure even coating without breaking the cereal.
- Spread and Set: Evenly spread the coated snack mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and allow it to cool completely at room temperature, letting the white chocolate set and bind the mix.
- Serve or Store: Once set, break the snack mix into clusters or pieces and serve immediately or store in an airtight container for future enjoyment.
Notes
- Add seasonal candies or festive sprinkles to customize and enhance the holiday vibe of the snack mix.
- Ensure the white chocolate is fully set before storing to prevent sticking and maintain texture.
- Store the snack mix in an airtight container at room temperature to keep it fresh for up to 1 week.
