Peanut Butter & Chocolate Chex Party Mix
Chex® Party Mix is a long time favorite in our family! My Mother-in-law used to make 5 gallon containers for the family to enjoy during the Holidays. Chex has now gone beyond the traditional Party Mix, and created several 15 minute recipes for you to enjoy.
Peanut Butter and Chocolate is a popular flavor combination, so it only seemed natural to add it to the Chex® Party Mix!
Chex® Cereal’s signature light crunchy squares are the base for this easy 15 minute treat! Part of the cereal is coated with melted white chocolate chips and the other part with melted peanut butter chips. After it chills only 5 minutes, you toss it with peanuts and seasonal candy.
Some of the other recipes that caught my eye over on Chex.com were the Caramel Cookie Crunch, Buttery Trail Mix and Vanilla Muddy Buddies® mix,but there are lots to choose from.
I love mixing up a batch of these easy treats to add to holiday dessert trays, fill in little Santa boxes for a special gift, or even some to enjoy while watching a movie. There are 8 great-tasting flavors – from Rice to Honey Nut to new Apple Cinnamon, so the flavor combinations are endless. And all Chex® Cereals have 8 grams or more whole grain per serving; at least 48 grams recommended daily.
