White Trash Chex Mix
A Little Sweet Talk…..
Sweet and salty, this decadent White Trash Chex Mix checks all the boxes! It’s fast and easy, perfect for your next get-together, game day, or holiday party. And, chock full of crunchy Chex cereal and pretzels, salty peanuts, and sweet bits of candy and marshmallow, it’s got a little something for everyone!
Start by lining a jelly roll pan with parchment paper, then layer on the Chex cereal (I like to use Corn Chex, but you can use any flavor, or a mix of rice, corn, and wheat), pretzels, peanuts, M&M’s, peanut butter chips, coconut, and mini marshmallows.
Technically, the candy pieces are unnecessary, since the almond bark coating is sweet enough, but the M&M’s add a nice pop of color and I enjoy the peanut butter flavor of the chips. I also enjoy the added textures of the coconut and the marshmallows. But feel free to substitute or leave out any ingredients that are not to your liking. It should look something like this:
Next, simply melt the almond bark in the microwave, stirring at one minute intervals until smooth. Pour over the Chex mixture and toss gently to thoroughly coat, then sprinkle the sea salt evenly over the top. And, voila! Instant deliciousness! Whip up some White Trash Chex Mix for your next party!
