Reindeer Chex Food aka Christmas Crack

If you are still looking for some fun baking to do with the kids over the holidays, this Christmas crack is so good. My SIL has made this reindeer food for us for the past few years and I have always loved it. I decided to make some with the kids this year and we gave it out to friends and neighbors. It was a hit! This recipe makes a huge portion, so you will have fun sharing it!

Reindeer Chex Food

Ingredients

1 (20 ounce) package miniature pretzels
1 (17.5 ounce) package crispy corn chex cereal squares (I used a mix of corn and vanilla)
1 (16 ounce) jar salted dry-roasted peanuts
1 (14 ounce) package candy-coated milk chocolate pieces (I used Peanut Butter MMs)
24 ounces white chocolate, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Cover a large area of counter space with waxed paper and tape it down.
Step 2

Mix pretzels, corn cereal squares, peanuts, and candy-coated milk chocolate pieces together in a large bowl.
Step 3

Melt white chocolate in the microwave according to directions or put in the top of a double boiler over simmering water, stirring frequently and scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching. Pour melted white chocolate over pretzel mixture; stir to evenly coat. Quickly transfer mixture to the prepared waxed paper and spread in a thin layer; cool completely. Break into pieces and store in an airtight container.
