What Do I Need to Make XOXO Valentine’s Mix?

• 5 cups Chocolate Chex cereal, divided
• 3 cups Very Berry Cheerios, divided
• 3 cups (12 mini .5 ounce bags) XOXO shaped pretzels, divided
• 1 (16 ounce) package vanilla candy coating
• 1 (2.1 ounce) container Valentine nonpareils sprinkles
• 1 (1.2 ounce) container Valentine heart sprinkles
• 1 cup Cupid’s Mix M&M’s
• 1 cup Valentine colored peanut M&M’s
• 6 (mini .5 ounce bags) X’s & O’s Cookies

How to Make XOXO Valentine’s Day Snack Mix

First, in a large bowl, combine 4 cups Chocolate Chex cereal, 2 cups Very Berry Cheerios, and 2 cups Utz X and O Shaped Pretzels. Just like so!

Then, in a microwave safe bowl (or the container the candy coating comes in), melt the vanilla candy coating according to package directions. It usually takes about 90 seconds to 2 minutes. Stir every 30 seconds until melted and smooth.

Pour the melted candy coating over the ingredients in the bowl and toss to coat, using a large spoon. Coat all the ingredients evenly.

Then, immediately, sprinkle half of the 2.1 ounce container of nonpareils Valentine sprinkles over the mixture in the bowl.

Stir gently to mix them throughout.

Spread the mixture in an even layer on parchment paper. I like to keep mine contained to a rimmed baking sheet to catch any strays.

Immediately sprinkle with the remaining nonpareils sprinkles, the heart sprinkles, 1 cup peanut M&M’s, 1 cup Cupid’s Mix M&M’s, 1 cup Very Berry Cheerios, 1 cup Chocolate Chex, 1 cup X and O shaped pretzels, and the X’s & O’s cookies.

Allow the mixture to cool completely. Break apart to serve and store it in an airtight container or baggie and enjoy!

We keep an airtight glass jar full on our kitchen counter all month long. It also makes for such a great treat to bag or box up and give as Valentine’s Day gifts to your friends and neighbors.
