Christmas Crack AKA White Chocolate Chex Mix


  • Author: Jessica
  • Total Time: 1 hour 15 minutes

Ingredients

Scale
  • For the Mix:
    • 3 cups Corn Chex cereal
    • 3 cups Rice Chex cereal
    • 2 cups Wheat Chex cereal
    • 2 cups mini pretzels
    • 1 cup roasted peanuts (optional)
  • For the Coating:
    • 2 cups white chocolate chips or melts
    • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • For the Finish:
    • 1/2 cup powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 250°F (121°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine Corn Chex, Rice Chex, Wheat Chex, pretzels, and peanuts. Toss gently to mix evenly.
  3. Melt the white chocolate chips and butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 15-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth and creamy. Add vanilla extract and stir well.
  4. Pour the melted white chocolate mixture over the cereal mixture. Use a silicone spatula or wooden spoon to gently toss and coat all the pieces evenly.
  5. Spread the coated cereal mix onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper in a single layer.
  6. Bake for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes to ensure even coating and prevent sticking.
  7. Remove from the oven and let cool completely. Once cooled, dust lightly with powdered sugar for a snowy finish.
  8. Store in airtight containers to keep fresh.
