A festive and gluten-free snack mix known as Reindeer Chow, combining crunchy Chex mix, popcorn, pretzels, and peanuts, all coated in creamy white chocolate and topped with colorful Christmas sprinkles. Perfect for holiday gatherings or a sweet, crunchy treat any time.

Ingredients

Scale

Dry Mix

  • 2 cups Chex mix (gluten free)
  • 2 cups popcorn
  • 2 cups pretzels (gluten free if desired)
  • 1/2 cup dry roasted peanuts, unsalted

Coating

  • 9 oz white chocolate (dairy free if desired)
  • 1 Tablespoon coconut oil

Toppings

  • Christmas sprinkles

Instructions

  1. Combine dry ingredients: In a large bowl, add the Chex mix, popcorn, pretzels, and dry roasted peanuts, mixing them gently to combine evenly.
  2. Melt coating: Melt the white chocolate together with the coconut oil using your preferred method such as microwave in short bursts or on the stovetop with a double boiler until smooth and fully melted.
  3. Coat the mix: Pour the melted white chocolate over the dry mixture, then stir thoroughly to ensure every piece is evenly coated with the chocolate mixture.
  4. Add sprinkles: Fold in Christmas sprinkles or any additional desired mix-ins carefully to avoid breaking the pieces.
  5. Chill: Spread the coated mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet in an even layer and place it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes until the chocolate is fully set and firm.
  6. Serve: Once set, break the mixture into bite-sized pieces and enjoy your festive Gluten Free Reindeer Chow snack.

Notes

  • Use gluten-free labeled Chex mix and pretzels to ensure the recipe is fully gluten free.
  • The coconut oil helps to smooth and thin the white chocolate for better coating consistency.
  • Feel free to substitute peanuts with other nuts or seeds depending on dietary preferences and allergies.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week to keep them fresh.
