Christmas Chex Mix recipe

• 4 c. 

  cups corn and/or rice cereal squares (such as Chex)

• 2 c. 

  mini pretzels

• 1 c. 

  salted roasted almonds 

• 4 Tbsp. 

  salted butter 

• 1/4 c. 

  honey

• 1/4 c. 

  sugar

• 1 tsp. 

  ground cinnamon 

• 1 tsp. 

  vanilla extract 

• 1/2 c. 

  white chocolate chips 

• 2 tsp. 

  coconut oil

• 1 c. 

  red and green M&M’s 

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 250˚F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, combine the cereal, pretzels, and almonds. 
2. 2In a small saucepan, melt the butter with the honey and sugar over low heat until the mixture is bubbling and well combined, about 2 minutes. Add the cinnamon and vanilla and stir until well combined. Pour half of the butter mixture over the cereal mixture and toss until well coated. Add the remaining butter mixture and toss again until evenly coated. 
3. 3Spread the mixture on the baking sheet in an even layer. Bake, stirring every 15 minutes, until toasted and just starting to dry out, about 1 hour. 
4. 4Combine the white chocolate chips and coconut oil in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave at 50% power in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until melted and smooth. 
5. 5Drizzle the white chocolate over the snack mix on the baking sheet, then immediately sprinkle with the M&M’s. Let cool completely so the white chocolate sets, about 30 minutes. Break into small clusters.
