1 cup M&M’s
1 cup salted peanuts
16 oz white chocolate or almond bark
Instructions
1. In a large bowl, combine Chex cereal, Cheerios, mini pretzels, M&M’s, and salted peanuts.
2. Melt the white chocolate or almond bark in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring between each until smooth.
3. Pour the melted chocolate over the dry mix and gently fold until everything is fully coated.
4. Spread the coated mix onto a parchment-lined baking sheet in an even layer.
5. Let it cool at room temperature for 30 minutes or refrigerate for 10–15 minutes until set.

Notes
Use almond bark instead of chips for easier melting and coating.
Always mix gently to avoid crushing the cereal.
