Ingredients

  • 1 (10 oz) bag mini twist pretzels
  • 1 (12 oz) box rice chex cereal
  • 1 (16 oz) container salted, roasted peanuts
  • 1 (10.8 oz) box honey nut cheerios
  • 1 (20 oz) bag candy corn
  • 1 (4 oz) box reese’s pieces
  • 1 (7.44 oz) box halloween m&ms
  • 1 (10 oz) box halloween peanut m&ms
  • 2 (16 oz) boxes vanilla candiquik melted according to box directions

Instructions

  • Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with silicone baking mats then set aside.
  • Into the largest bowl possible (I’m talking giant bowl)**, stir together pretzels, chex, peanuts, cheerios, and candy until well combined.
  • Pour the melted vanilla candiquik over the mixture and mix again until all the pieces are fully coated.
  • Spread onto prepared baking sheets and allow to cool completely.***
  • Break into smaller chunks then store in airtight containers until ready to serve!

Notes

*Vanilla almond bark or white chocolate chips mixed with canola oil may also be used.
**If you don’t have a large enough bowl, feel free to make this in two separate bowls or a very large paper bag. If using a paper bag, it MUST be double bagged or the weight of the monster munch will rip it… I speak from experience. ;)
***Need to cool the monster munch down quickly? Throw the baking sheets with the monster munch into the fridge for freezer for about 30 minutes, or until the white chocolate has set.
