2 24 oz. packages vanilla almond bark
3 c. mini pretzels
14 oz. box Frosted Cheerios
12 oz. box Rice Chex
2 14 oz. bag M&M's (Christmas version)
Melt almond bark in microwave. Combine pretzels, Cheerios, and Rice Chex in large bowl. Coat with melted almond bark. Add M&M's. Pour out onto wax paper and sprinkle with sugars. Let stand for 30 minutes and then break into pieces.
*I like to do Rice Chex first, then Cheerios, pretzels and last M&M's - the heavy stuff then falls to the bottom while getting stirred, instead of starting on the bottom.
*Better to half the recipe for mixing - and do it twice.
* One recipe makes 25 sandwich bag sizes, or 13 celo bags.
*Definitely double this recipe (at the least) if doing this for neighbor Christmas gifts.
*This year, 2014, I bought the shaped cello bags and they were WAY too small. The opening to fill the bag was tiny, and then the finished bag was so small it looked ridiculous giving to big families.
*2018 update: I tripled the recipe and got 39 cello bags, plus my kids' snacking. I have to do another batch to catch a few more plus Bailey's friends.
