White Chocolate Party Mix

This is another holiday recipe that is not necessarily cheap. However, once again, if you plan ahead, use coupons, get sales, and use part of your gift-giving budget, you might be able to fit it in. It's good enough to give as gifts, for sure!

1 package (10 oz.) mini pretzels (7 handfuls)
5 cups Cheerios
5 cups Corn Chex or Shreddies
2 cups salted peanuts or mixed nuts
1 lb. M&Ms
2 packages (12 oz. each) vanilla chips, or bulk white chocolate (16 oz. = approx. 2 cups)
3 Tbsp vegetable oil

In a large bowl, combine the first 5 ingredients. Set aside. In a microwave-safe bowl, heat chocolate and oil on medium-high for 2 minutes, stirring once. Microwave on high for 10 seconds; stir until smooth. Pour over cereal mixture and mix well. Spread onto 3 wax paper lined baking sheets. Cool; break apart. Store in an airtight container. Makes 5 quarts.
