Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 8 minutes
Rest Time: 1 hour
Total Time: 1 hour 13 minutes
Servings: 6
Ingredients:
1½ cups Rice Chex Cereal
1½ cups Corn Chex Cereal
2 cups mini pretzels
2 cups Halloween M&Ms
1-2 cups peanuts, salted or unsalted
1 cup Candy Corn or Halloween Mallow Mix
1 (24-ounce) package white almond bark
Directions:
Line a large pan with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine Chex, pretzels, M&M’s, peanuts, and candy corn and mix well.
Break almond bark into pieces and melt in a medium pot over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth.
Pour melted bark over cereal mixture and mix well.
Spread out onto wax paper or onto a parchment paper–lined baking sheet. Let it set for 1 hour, then break it into pieces to serve.
Notes:
Store. Once cool and set, the mix can be placed in an airtight container or Ziploc. Store at room temperature for up to 2 weeks, in the fridge for 3 weeks (may become soft), or in the freezer for 2-3 months.
What is the best way to melt smooth almond bark?
The double-boiler method is the best. Fill the bottom of a small saucepan with about 2 inches of water, bring to a boil, and then turn the heat to low. Remove the lid and place a heat-safe glass or metal bowl on top (making sure the bottom doesn’t touch the water). Add chopped bark to the bowl, and stir while the chocolate melts.
Microwave is the fastest, but take caution that it doesn’t overheat. Heat in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring thoroughly between each interval.
