Crunchy blend of pretzels, nuts, honey glaze, chocolate chips, and powdered sugar for holiday gatherings.
# What You Need:
→ Base
01 - 3 cups mini pretzel twists
02 - 2 cups rice cereal squares, such as Chex
03 - 1 cup roasted almonds
04 - 1 cup honey-roasted peanuts
→ Coating
05 - 1/2 cup unsalted butter
06 - 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
07 - 1/4 cup honey
08 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
09 - 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
→ Garnish
10 - 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
11 - 1/4 cup powdered sugar
# How to Make:
01 - Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - In a large mixing bowl, mix together the pretzel twists, rice cereal squares, roasted almonds, and honey-roasted peanuts.
03 - Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the brown sugar, honey, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon. Simmer gently, stirring constantly, until sugar is dissolved and mixture slightly thickens, about 2 minutes.
04 - Pour the warm coating evenly over the base mixture. Toss gently until all ingredients are thoroughly coated.
05 - Spread the coated mix evenly onto the prepared baking sheet. Let cool for 5 to 10 minutes.
06 - Sprinkle mini chocolate chips over the slightly cooled mixture so they adhere without melting completely.
07 - Once completely cool, dust the mix with powdered sugar to create a festive, snowy appearance.
08 - Transfer to a large serving bowl or portion into small cups for individual servings.
