Cinnamon White Chocolate Snack Mix
All the flavors of fall and the holidays in a tasty snack mix! This will definitely satisfy that sweet and salty craving. This mix has pecans, cinnamon chex, cinnamon graham crackers, and pretzels all tossed in a cinnamon spice and sugar mixture drizzled with melted white chocolate. Yum!
What I love most about snack mixes is that you can really add and subtract any goodies that you like. Other nuts would be great in this, along with other cereals you may have on hand. I usually end up with half used boxes of cereal so I often throw what I have on hand into a snack mix to use it up!
This also makes a great gift treat. I sent my guests home from my Friendsgiving party with these cute little bags filled with chex treats!
This is perfect for after school snacks, fall and holiday parties, or work pot-lucks! It definitely won’t sit around too long!
