Description

Bunny Bait Easter Chex Mix is such a fun treat for the Easter Holiday. It's made up of Chex & Cheerios coated in white chocolate with marshmallows, pastel m&ms, and pretzels. A kid and adult favorite, and ready in under 30 minutes with no baking required. 


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups rice Chex cereal
  • 2 cups Honey Nut Cheerios cereal
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows
  • 10 ounce White Vanilla Melting Wafers, preference for Ghirardelli
  • 1 cup Strawberry yogurt pretzels, mini version if you can find them or regular is fine
  • 1 cup pastel m&m's


Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, add in Rice Chex, Cheerios and Mini Marshmallows and stir to combine.
  2. Add the melting wafers to a double boiler or in a microwave safe container and melt according to package instructions. Note: Make sure NOT to get any water in the mixture or it could seize up.
  3. Melt the white chocolate until completely smooth.
  4. Pour the white chocolate over the Chex mix and gently stir to coat the entire mixture.
  5. Line the countertop with a long sheet of parchment paper. Pour the mixture out on the parchment paper and allow it to harden. It takes about 10-15 minutes.
  6. Transfer the mixture into a serving bowl and pour in the pretzels and m&m's. Toss to combine. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • Don't get any water, not even a droplet, into the melting wafers or it could seize (harden) the chocolate.
  • Try to spread the chocolate coated mixture out into a flat layer on the parchment paper to allow the chocolate to harden faster.
