What's for Snack: Reindeer Feed (for people :) )

I saw this recipe on "The Talk" a new talk show on CBS and had to try it! It was super easy and fast and is a good recipe to do with kids.

I made it then wrapped it in pretty clear bags, it will be a little Christmas treat for my neighbors. This would also be good for co-workers.


Reindeer Feed

Prep Time: 10
Minutes Start to Finish: 30 Minutes
Makes: 20 servings (1/2 cup each)

6 cups Rice Chex® or Chocolate Chex® cereal

1 bag (12 oz) white vanilla baking chips (2 cups)

1/3 cup coarsely crushed peppermint candy canes (14 miniature,
unwrapped)I put mine in the food processor for a quick second

Directions
1. Line cookie sheet with foil or waxed paper. Place cereal in large bowl.

2. In microwavable bowl, microwave white vanilla baking chips uncovered on High about 1 minute 30 seconds, stirring every 30 seconds, until chips can be stirred smooth. Stir in half the crushed peppermint candy.

3. Pour over cereal; toss to evenly coat. Spread mixture in single layer on cookie sheet. Immediately sprinkle with remaining candy. Let stand until set, about 20 minutes. Gently break up coated cereal. Store in airtight container.
