WHITE TRASH RECIPE

White Trash or Junk Mix is one of our favorite sweet and salty snacks for the holidays. Great for parties or as a homemade gift.

Ingredients
  

  • 8 cups Crispix cereal
  • 3 cups pretzel sticks
  • 1 pound M&M's Candies
  • 2 10 ounce bags white chocolate melting wafers or vanilla morsels

Method
 

  1. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or wax paper.
  2. Spread cereal, pretzels and all but 1/2 cup of the M&M's over baking sheet.
  3. Melt vanilla melting wafers in microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring in between until melted and smooth. Alternately, place in a double boiler and cook over low heat, stirring until melted.
  4. Drizzle melted vanilla chips over cereal mixture, stirring with a wood spoon until well coated.
  5. Set aside until white chocolate sets up, about 15 - 20 minutes or refrigerate about 10 minutes.
  6. Break mixture apart and stir in remaining M&M's.
  7. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.

Notes

Snack mix will last about 7 - 10 days at room temperature in an airtight container.
