I love how many different Chex mix recipes there are on the Chex website. Don't red, white, and pink make a lovely Chex mix? I love a holiday where a Chex mix is involved. And this one really is quite delish. It's a fun treat that the whole family will love, and also fun to put in little bags for a visiting teaching treat or for a friend. Another yummy option is to make the gooey Chex treat from back in December and just use Valentine's Day m&m's instead of Christmas m&m's.
Ingredients
- 9 c. Rice Chex or Corn Chex cereal
- 1 c. white chocolate chips
- 1/2 c. peanut butter
- 1/4 c. butter or margarine
- 3/4 c. powdered sugar
- 1/2 c. plain Valentine's Day m&m's
- 1/4 c. red sprinkles
Directions
- Place the cereal in a large bowl. In a small microwavable bowl, melt white chocolate chips, peanut butter, and butter uncovered 1 1/2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds, until melted and smooth. Pour the mixture over the cereal, stirring until evenly coated.
- Place half the mixture in a 1-gallon food storage bag. Add the powdered sugar, seal, and shake well until coated. Spread on wax paper or foil and allow to cool for about 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, stir m&m's and sprinkles into the remaining cereal mixture. Spread on wax paper or foil and allow to cool for about 15 minutes.
- Mix both cereal mixtures together in a serving bowl. Store in an airtight container.
