3 cups salted pretzels
2 cups Bugles
2 cups Fritos
1 cup Chex Mix
1 cup roasted peanuts
1 1/2 cups M&Ms
1 pack of white chocolate bark or melting chocolate

Steps:

  • In a large bowl pour your pretzels, Fritos, Bugles, Chex Mix, peanuts, and M&Ms. Place the melting chocolate or bark in a bowl & microwave for 90 seconds. Stir and, if needed, heat an additional 15 seconds until it's smooth and creamy.

Once fully coated, take a large cookie sheet and pour coated mixture onto the sheet and spread it out and allow to cool completely. Once cooled, break into pieces. Store in an air tight container.

Tips:

  • Choose quality ingredients: Use high-quality butter, chocolate, and crackers for the best flavor and texture.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When melting the butter and chocolate, use a large enough pan so that the mixture can spread out evenly and not burn.
  • Stir constantly: When melting the butter and chocolate, stir constantly to prevent scorching.
  • Let the mixture cool slightly: Before spreading the chocolate mixture onto the crackers, let it cool slightly so that it is thick and spreadable.
  • Use a variety of toppings: Get creative with your toppings! You can use nuts, seeds, dried fruit, candy, or even pretzels.
  • Chill until firm: After spreading the chocolate mixture onto the crackers, chill them in the refrigerator until the chocolate is firm.
  • Break into pieces and enjoy: Once the chocolate is firm, break the crackers into pieces and enjoy!
