Description

Monster Munch is an easy, sweet-and-salty Halloween snack mix, ready in minutes and covered in melted white chocolate.


Ingredients

  • 3 cups Rice Chex
  • 2 cups Mini pretzels twists or sticks
  • 2 cups Dry roasted and salted peanuts
  • 1 bag(10oz) M&Ms
  • 16 ounces Ghirardelli White Chocolate candy melts
  • Wilton Colored Candy Melts (Purple & Orange)
  • Candy eyes and sprinkles

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients except the white chocolate and sprinkles. Mix to combine.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate wafers at 50% power in 30-second intervals; stir after each interval and continue until the chocolate is melted. Reduce microwave time as needed so the chocolate does not burn. Pour the melted chocolate over the cereal mixture; add until well coated.
  3. Spread the mixture on a large cooking sheet, add the candy eyes and sprinkles over the chocolate before it sets.
  4. Melt the colored candy melts as instructed above. Start with 1/4 cup and add more as needed. Drizzle over the mixture and allow the chocolate to set completely. Once set, transfer to an airtight container.
