Many many years ago, a friend introduced me to a yummy Christmas treat called “Reindeer Food” and I look forward to it every year. I’ve tweaked, added, and taken away from the recipe over the years, so here’s my version of this popular recipe.
Reindeer Food
Ingredients:
1 package 10 oz mini pretzels
5 cups of cheerios (I like Honey Nut)
5 cups of corn chex
2 cups salted peanuts
1 pound of plain Christmas M&M’s
1 package of almond bark
Directions:
In a large bowl, combine first 5 ingredients. I combined them all in a very large pot on top of the stove (stove off).
In a glass bowl, heat almond bark in microwave, starting at 30 second intervals, stirring each time. Heat until almond bark is smooth – do not overheat.
Pour almond bark over cereal mixture and mix well.
Spread onto parchment or wax paper and sift powdered sugar on top.
Allow to cool, then break apart into pieces.
Serve and enjoy!
