Ingredients
Scale
Snack Mix
- 1 cup Chex cereal
- 1 cup pretzels
- 1 cup popcorn
- 1 cup M&M’s
Chocolate Coating
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Mix the dry ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the Chex cereal, pretzels, popcorn, and M&M’s, gently stirring to distribute evenly.
- Melt the white chocolate: Place the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 20-30 second increments, stirring after each, until smooth and fully melted.
- Combine chocolate with snack mix: Pour the melted white chocolate over the snack mixture in the bowl.
- Coat the mixture: Toss everything together carefully to ensure all pieces are evenly coated with the white chocolate.
- Cool the mix: Spread the coated snack mixture in a single layer on a baking sheet or parchment paper to cool completely.
- Serve: Once the mixture is set and cooled, break it into pieces and serve or store in an airtight container.
Notes
- Use freshly popped popcorn with no added butter or salt for best results.
- To speed up cooling, place the baking sheet in the refrigerator after spreading the mixture.
- Mix gently to avoid crushing the popcorn when tossing with melted chocolate.
- Store leftover snack mix in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
- You can substitute white chocolate chips with almond bark or white melting wafers for easier melting and better coating.
