Holiday Snack Mix
Ingredients
- 4 cups salted pretzels
- 4 cups salted popcorn
- 1 cup mini M&M's
- 2 Tbsp. Holiday sprinkles
- 1 10 oz. package Peppermint white chocolate chips
- 1 8 oz. package Mini Oreos
- 1 cup roasted almonds
Instructions
- Place the pretzels and popcorn on a baking sheet lined with foil. Melt the peppermint white chocolate chips according to the directions on the package (see notes below). Once melted, drizzle the melted chocolate on the pretzels and popcorn with a spoon. Add the mini M&M's and sprinkles to the top. Let the chocolate harden for about 10 minutes.
- Once the chocolate has set on the pretzels and popcorn, break up with your hands and place in a bowl with the Oreos and almonds.
- Mix together with your hands or a wooden spoon until the Holiday Snack Mix is combined. Enjoy!
Notes
- To store this Holiday Snack Mix, place in an airtight container and store in a cool place.
- If you can't find the Peppermint White Chocolate Chips, simply use plain white chocolate chips instead and add 3 tablespoons of crushed candy canes.
- To melt the chocolate, place in a microwavable safe bowl and melt for about 2 minutes. Stir every 30 seconds with a spoon. Directions will be on the back of the chocolate chip package. The melted chocolate should be ultra creamy and smooth.
