ALTON BROWN'S WHITE TRASH
Alton once posted this on his website and said that he always cranks out a bushel or two of it during the holidays. He also said "Dole this stuff out carefully. It is highly habit forming." I totally agree and for this reason have no earthly idea how many servings it makes! Depends on how much you can eat! LOL Especially good to anyone who likes the salty-sweet combination. Cooking time is cooling time.

Steps:
- melt almond bark over LOW heat in a double boiler stirring frequently.
- I suggest mixing a handful of all ingredients EXCEPT powdered sugar to see if you like more pretzels or more chex or whatever.
- I just fold in the cereals, pretzels, & pecans into melted bark until well coated. I didn't measure any of it, I just kept adding more until all pieces were covered well with bark, but there wasn't a ton of extra bark at the bottom of the pan.
- Spoon mixture onto waxed paper or foil in large bite-size clumps. (I use wax paper on a cookie sheet for easier transfer to the fridge.) Move into the fridge for fast cooling if you like. When bark has set, put all the pieces in a large tupperware type container or large ziploc bag. Sprinkle the powdered sugar all over, then shake the container to spread it around well.
- Enjoy!

A coworker brought these in one day, calling them a "sweet version of 'Nuts and Bolts'". I've never had "Nuts & Bolts", but they were really yummy. She gave us the recipe, so I'm putting it here so I don't lose it. Servings are an estimation.
