Great snack gift for CHRISTmas! Thank you so much for posting! I used stick pretzels but broke them in half and I only had rice chex so just used the full amount for that. It came out great! Thanks, CalicoCandy! This recipe made it into our Our Top Reviewed Recipes of 2007!

    Made this along with 7 other candies and this by far was my fave! Sweet, Salty and Yummy! And super easy at that! What else could one want!

    This is one of my favorite holiday treats. I also add craisins and use almond bark instead of the white chocolate chips. If the mixture isn't too wet or if you wait until it cools a little bit, this looks really pretty shaped into a Christmas tree (cone) shape and then you just break off pieces to eat. Thanks for posting!

    After everyone got over the name...LOL. They LOVED it and it was a good thing i doubled the recipe. I made for a potluck and ended up feeding most of my work with it and other shift came to get some also because they heard about.....easy to make.....next time i will make one batch at a time though...also instead of peanut m&ms i found mint and used those for a differnet flavor.

    What a hit! Made this for Christmas to put on our cookie trays, it was the first thing gone. The sweet and salty flavor is really good. I also made it with chocolate chips and got the same response. I've already made more batches for a few of the guys at work, they loved it. Really looks like trash, but tastes great! Thank you for the recipe.

    Loved this one — excellent combination of sweet, salty, and crunchy!!!! Very addictive but I felt quite justified eating it for breakfast as it was made out of mostly cereals!!!! Perhaps next time I make this I will omit the M&M's and add a variety of nuts, maybe pecans or almonds along with the peanuts. Thanks for a great recipe — it's definately a keeper!

    This was very easy and very fast, as well as very delicious! I used white almond bark in place of the chips and substituted mini marshmellows in place of the nuts as my daughter cannot have them. Loved my all in my house!
