👩🏼🍳How to Make Valentine Chex Mix
Step 1: Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or wax paper. Combine cereal and pretzels in a large bowl and place half of the cereal mixture on the baking sheet.
Step 2: Place the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 20 second increments, stirring after each, until the chips are melted.
Step 3: Drizzle about half of the melted white chocolate over the cereal mixture on the baking sheet.
Step 4: Add the remaining mix to the baking sheet.
Step 5: Drizzle the rest of the melted chocolate on top of the second layer of the mix.
Step 6: Sprinkle with M&Ms and Valentine sprinkles.
Step 7: Place in the refrigerator to chill for about 30 minutes.
Step 8: Once the chocolate has set, break the mix into large chunks and place in a serving bowl.
Tips & Tricks
- Feel free to use different cereals or throw in any of your favorite mix-ins. Peanuts, cashews, and marshmallows are some of our favorites.
- If you’re getting impatient while waiting for the chocolate to set and want to chill it in a hurry, just pop it in the freezer for a few minutes.
- For best results, use a high-quality white chocolate. It will melt more smoothly and give your mix a richer flavor.
Store your leftover snack mix in an airtight container at room temperature. It will keep for 4-5 days.
Yes! You can freeze this mix in an airtight container for up to 3 months. Allow it to thaw at room temperature.
