Ingredients

  • 3 cups pretzel twists
  • 3 cups kettle corn
  • 5 cups rice chex cereal
  • 3 cups cocoa puffs cereal
  • 12 oz white chocolate
  • 1/2 tsp peppermint extract
  • 1/2 cup crushed candy canes

Instructions

  • Combine pretzels, popcorn, rice chex, and cocoa puffs in a large bowl.
  • Add white chocolate to a separate small bowl and add peppermint extract. Microwave for 20 seconds and stir. Continue to microwave in 10 second increments until white chocolate is meted. Err on the side of microwaving the chocolate for less time, and rather rely on stirring to disperse the heat and melt the chocolate.
  • Drizzle white chocolate over the cereal mix and mix completely to combine.
  • Transfer to parchment paper and top with crushed candy canes. Allow to cool, and break into smaller pieces.
