Yummy Recipe

I have been making this recipe for the past three years or so.  It is very good and very easy.  That is just the kind of recipe I like!  You can also use this for every season M & M candy comes out in fun colors for the different holidays.  This is a yummy treat and it is also nice to give out around the holidays for some Fa La La.  And, it just might go really well with your afternoon coffee.  Just saying.  :)

Vanilla Snack Mix

2 12 oz pkgs vanilla chocolate chips
5 cups Cheerios
5 cups Corn Chex
10 oz small pretzels (loops or sticks)
2 cups peanuts or cashews (optional)
1 large bag M & M candy 

Melt 2 packages vanilla chips with 3 tsp vegetable oil in a microwave safe bowl for two minutes.  Stir frequently while melting.  Stir chocolate until smooth.
Dump in very large bowl all dry ingredients.
Pour melted chips over cereal mixture.  Toss to coat.  Spread on waxed paper to cool.  Break apart after cooling and store in a sealed container.  

Enjoy!
