What happens when you cross peanuts with pretzels and Reese's peanut butter puffs cereal? This Reindeer Snack Mix, that's what! Each ingredient on its own is fabulous, of course. When mixed together with some melted white chocolate, you have a snack mix that is really too good for words. Yes folks, I am speechless. Or maybe I am just too busy stuffing my face with more snack mix. :) Either way, I will simply leave you with this. It's the holidays. You are bound to have guests or to be a guest. Here is a fun and easy little snack that will leave everybody singing your praises this holiday season!
Yields about 3 quarts
4 1/2 cups Reese's Peanut Butter Puffs
4 cups miniature pretzels
12 ounces lightly salted peanuts
12 ounces white chocolate chips
- In a large bowl, combine cereal, pretzels and peanuts.
- In a microwave, melt the white chocolate chips; stir until smooth.
- Pour melted white chocolate over cereal mixture and toss to coat.
- Immediately spread onto waxed paper-lined baking sheets. Let stand until set, about 20 minutes. Break into pieces and store in airtight container.
This is a wonderful combination of salty sweet! I love the use of the cereal in this, can't wait to try it. Glad I came across this great snack recipe for the holidays!

What is that great wooden reindeer lurking in the background? He's lovely. Great snack idea...wonder if I can fit this on my snack table? :)
ReplyDeleteI had something similar to this at a Christmas party one year - they called it Snowman Poo, and I thought seriously?! This is a much cuter name!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great Christmas treat!!
ReplyDeleteOh, that's delicious! I'm glad I don't have to be a reindeer to eat it...cuz I'd consider it!
ReplyDeleteHmmm, I still don't like pretzels with chocolate, but they are very pretty little treats.
