Ingredients:
- Assorted cereals (like Chex, Cheerios, Corn Flakes, or any other favorites)
- Pretzels
- Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, chopped
- M&M’s candies
- White chocolate bark (or milk chocolate, if preferred)
Instructions:
- In a large bowl, combine your chosen cereals, pretzels, chopped Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, and M&M’s. The exact amounts can be adjusted to your preference, but aim for a good mix of all ingredients.
- Line a large baking sheet with wax paper and set it aside.
- Melt the white chocolate bark (or milk chocolate) according to the package instructions. You can use a double boiler or microwave it in short intervals, stirring between each interval, until it’s smooth and fully melted.
- Pour the melted chocolate over the cereal mixture in the bowl. Use a spatula or large spoon to gently fold the chocolate into the mix, ensuring that all the pieces are evenly coated.
- Spread the chocolate-coated mixture onto the prepared baking sheet lined with wax paper. Use the spatula to distribute it evenly in a single layer.
- Allow the mixture to set at room temperature for 15-20 minutes, or until the chocolate has hardened completely. If you’re in a hurry, you can place the baking sheet in the refrigerator to speed up the setting process.
- Once the chocolate has set, break the Christmas Crunch into bite-sized chunks using your hands or a knife.
- Serve the Christmas Crunch in a large bowl or on a platter, and enjoy with friends and family! This recipe makes a large batch, enough to feed around 40 people, making it perfect for work parties or holiday gatherings.
