? Variations
Feel free to get creative and use your favorite nut butters to get the nutty flavor in this festive holiday treat. Mini marshmallows or mini Hershey's Kisses are a great swap for the Reese's cups. For a different flavor use white chocolate chips, milk chocolate chips, or dark chocolate dips instead of semisweet chocolate chips. I like to use pretzel twists, but you can also use pretzel sticks for this fun snack mix. For even more chocolate flavor you can add ? cup of cocoa powder to the powdered sugar that you coat the cereal with. You could also swap out the Chex cereal for Cheerios or even Cornflakes. Toasted or roasted nuts also make a great addition to this Reindeer Chex mix.???? Tips
Once the chocolate and peanut butter mixture has hardened you can serve this reindeer puppy chow in a big bowl. Or place it in a storage bag until you are ready to enjoy it. A double boiler method can used to melt the chocolate chips and peanut butter. Just watch it closely. This snack mix makes great homemade gifts for neighbors and friends. Just place it in cellophane bags with some ribbon or you can also use mason jars with a piece of fabric on top. This recipe is so flexible you can add your favorite chopped-up candy bars, cookies, or anything else that you enjoy.? FAQs
