How to Make Christmas Snack Mix

Making your own Christmas snack mix is very easy. Best of all, if you have kids you can get them involved in making the holiday snack as well.
Gather – Start by gathering all the ingredients on the counter. When I’m making any snack mix I like to use the largest bowl I have.
Layer – You want to start with the snack like foods first like the bugles, chex, pretzels, and popcorn.
Melt Chocolate – Then add in half the chocolate bars. I melt each colored white chocolate individually and drizzle with a spoon. Then add sprinkles. Repeat until you are done with however many colors you would like to add on the popcorn.
Refrigerate – Place the mix in the refrigerator so the chocolate will set. Add the gummies once ready to serve. Easy as that!
