Ingredients

  • 5 cups pretzels
  • 5 cups Chex corn cereal
  • 2 cups chocolate candy like M&M’s
  • 2 cups mini marshmallows
  • 8-10 Twizzlers or red vines
  • 1 pound white almond bark
  • 1 bag red candy melts
  • 1 bag blue candy melts
  • Sprinkles

Instructions

  • In a very large bowl, stir together pretzels and cereal. Add candy and marshmallows and stir together.
  • Spread mixture evenly onto large baking sheet.
  • Cut licorice Twizzlers into small pieces and add on top.
  • In 3 separate microwave safe bowls, melt chocolate for 30 seconds, stir and continue heating for 10-20 seconds at a time, stirring after each heating, until chocolate is almost melted. Continue stirring until smooth.
  • Transfer into plastic squeeze bottles. This is optional, but much easier to add the chocolate. You can also use piping bags or just drizzle with a spoon. Drizzle white chocolate, then add red and blue melted chocolate.
  • Immediately add sprinkles. Let set about 10-15 minutes to harden.
  • Break into pieces. Store in airtight container until ready to serve.
