Too sweet/rich for me with the ingredients listed. I used pretzels, chex, peanuts and m&m's. The amount of white chocolate chips seems to be too much. I wonder if the white chocolate chips are supposed to be a 12 ounce bag (which are standard in my grocery store) instead of 16oz. Also, the time listed is 5 hours - took me 5 minutes prep and another 10 minutes for my candy to harden. I wouldn't do this version of white trash again.

    Remember Munchies Kid Mix? I used to love that stuff and this reminds me of it, but covered in white chocolate. I've made two batches of this stuff one with nuts and pretzels and one with popcorn and nuts. The popcorn and nuts one is the best! If I make this again I'm going to use Captain Crunch instead of Chex cereal as I suspect it will be even more awesome! I'm giving this as gifts, but am having a hard time not eating it myself and my husband can't seem to stay out of it either. This one is a keeper!

    This was a big hit at our family get-together on xmas eve, with both kids and adults. I had 2 people ask for the recipe! It was easy to make, and tasty too; all I would suggest is making sure you use 2 cookie sheets to spread the mixture out on. I used one and it was a bit of a pain breaking the mixture up after it had hardened since it was pretty thick.

    Great recipe, Thanks. Easy to make and fun to eat. Made it for a Christmas office party and had many requests for the recipe. The name is fun too
