Every year around the holidays I go through panic mode as I try to come up with good gift ideas for teachers, bus drivers, and family friends. I have done the whole cookie ingredients in the jar, and that was a ton of work! This year I have decided to go a different route, I am giving Chex Mix. I made a batch of Muddy Buddy Mix around Thanksgiving and it was a hit with everyone, so I know everyone will enjoy this gift, and it is super easy to make!
This year Chex is encouraging all of us to ditch the hours of baking and spend just 15 minutes whipping up a yummy batch of Chex Mix to exchange. With recipes that vary from sweet to salty to savory, you can find something that everyone will enjoy. And, although I have an addiction to the Muddy Buddy recipe, I am set on trying the Chocolate Caramel Drizzle and Hot Buttered Yum! I know, so many choices to choose from. Chex also offers ideas on packaging and tips/tricks to make sure that you avoid any disasters.
To make this exchange even easier, be sure to visit Sam’s Clubfor you Chex cereal, where the offer a big box that includes one bag each of their Rice, Wheat, and Corn Varieties. I used the Corn Chex in my Muddy Buddy recipe and it was yummy! I might try it with Chocolate Chex next time. That is right, three easy steps and you are done! I even made an easy picture chart for you to follow, just remember that a little bit of work ends in a whole lot of YUM!
