Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups rice Chex
- 3 cups Cheerios
- 2 cups pretzels
- 2 cups M&Ms
- 1 1/2 cups dried cranberries
- 16 ounces white chocolate chips
Instructions
- In a large bowl, add the rice Chex, Cheerios, pretzels, M&Ms, and dried cranberries. Gently stir the ingredients to mix them thoroughly without breaking the pieces.
- Place a heavy saucepan over low heat and add the white chocolate chips. Stir frequently to melt the chocolate evenly and prevent burning. Once fully melted, immediately remove the pan from heat to avoid overheating.
- Add the melted white chocolate to the snack mix in small dollops. Stir gently between each addition to ensure the white chocolate evenly coats all the pieces without clumping.
- On a work surface, lay out 4 to 6 sheets of wax paper. Pour the coated snack mixture onto the wax paper and use a spatula to gently spread it into a thin, even layer.
- Allow the mixture to sit at room temperature for 10 to 15 minutes until the white chocolate hardens and the mix solidifies.
- Once hardened, break the party mix into small chunks suitable for serving.
- Enjoy immediately or store the white chocolate party mix in a sealed container for up to one week.
Notes
- Store in a cool, dry place to maintain freshness.
- Feel free to customize with your favorite mix-ins.
