EASTER SNACK MIX

Easter Snack Mix is so cute to enjoy especially for Easter. This snack mix is also known to be called Easter Bunny Mix, Bunny Trail Mix Recipe, Easter Party Mix or Bunny Bait.  This recipe is a fun Kids Easter Snack Mix recipe that they can help make and assemble. They will love the Easter candy and mini marshmallows that goes into this recipe too!

Similar to muddy buddies, this recipe is the same process except we use white chocolate and shredded coconut to coat the Chex cereal. Half of the cereal is dyed a light pink for Easter. You can color the Chex cereal any pastel color, some other ideas are light yellow, green or blue.

If you want to make another cute and delicious Easter treat, try my Easter Bunny Spinach Dip that is shaped like a bunny and filled with creamy spinach dip. This Easter Bunny Spinach Dip makes a super easy Easter appetizer!
