Reindeer Feed Recipe {White Chocolate Peppermint Chex Mix}

So tell me…do you set cookies out for Santa? Maybe a carrot or two for his Reindeer?

Here is some Reindeer Feed that is sure to please Rudolph and his gang!

Back in August {when we didn’t have 2 feet of snow on the ground} I had the honor of baking in the Betty Crocker Kitchens, I had such an amazing time! Well, recently they sent me a little package with the products to make this Reindeer Feed.

Reindeer Bucket…

Casey {my youngest} and I had fun decorating the bucket. We started with tracing his hand on the brown felt, then I folded it in half and cut out the “antlers.” Because the felt was thin, I decided to add some cardboard pieces to the back of each finger so they would stand up.

The nose we received was brown, and we wanted to make Rudolph, so we just used some red yarn and wrapped around the brown pompom. I glued everything on with the hot glue gun.
