RECIPE: Chex Party Mix
Our favorite 2010 Chex Party Mix combines |
Each year Chex cereal holds a Party Mix recipe contest. Five finalists are chosen from 1,000 or more entries, and are posted on ChexRecipeContest.com so that Chex Party Mix lovers can try them and vote for a winner.
Your participation in voting will help the hungry as well. The 2010 contest kicked off with a $25,000 donation to Feeding America. For every online vote, Chex will make an additional $2.00 donation, up to an additional $25,000. Our favorite of the five finalists was developed by Eliza E. of Manchester, New Hampshire. Thanks, Eliza! The crunchy peanut butter and white chocolate mix disappeared in the blink of an eye. We had to make more to enjoy on top of ice cream! The yellow and red Reese’s Pieces we used make a great Halloween snack as well (you can add 1/4 to 1/2 cup of candy corn). |
