Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 cup rice Chex cereal
  • 4 cup corn Chex cereal
  • 2 cup Cheerios
  • 2 cup pretzels small
  • 1 cup salted peanuts dry-roasted
  • 1 cup M&M's
  • 24 oz white chocolate baking bars chopped

Equipment

  • 1 microwave
  • 2 rimmed baking sheet

Method
 

  1. Combine the rice Chex, corn Chex, Cheerios, pretzels, peanuts, and M&M's in a large 8-quart bowl.
  2. Put the white chocolate in a microwave-safe 2-quart bowl and microwave at 50% power in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, for 2 to 3 minutes until smooth.
  3. Pour the melted chocolate over the cereal mixture and fold gently until evenly coated.
  4. Divide the mixture between two parchment-lined rimmed baking sheets.
  5. Let stand at room temperature for 30 to 45 minutes, until the chocolate is firm.
  6. Break into pieces.

Notes

For an even coating, fold gently while the chocolate is smooth. Store airtight in the refrigerator for up to 14 days; freezer: yes, for up to 2 months. For a dairy-free option, use dairy-free white chocolate baking bars.
