Monster Munch is one of my favorite treats to keep on hand when I need something quick to share. It hits that perfect balance of crunchy, salty, and sweet that everyone seems to love.

You can easily customize this by adding your favorite colorful candies or nuts. Just make sure to let the chocolate set completely before you try to break it into pieces so it stays nice and crispy.

Ingredients

  • 4 cups corn or rice cereal squares
  • 2 cups small twist pretzels
  • 12 ounces white chocolate chips
  • 1 cup candy coated chocolate gems
  • 1/2 cup mini marshmallows

Instructions

  1. 1

    Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper to keep things from sticking.

  2. 2

    Pour the cereal and pretzels into a very large mixing bowl and stir them together gently.

  3. 3

    Melt the white chocolate chips in the microwave in thirty second intervals, stirring in between until the chocolate is smooth.

  4. 4

    Pour the melted chocolate over the cereal and pretzels, then use a spatula to toss everything until the pieces are well coated.

  5. 5

    Spread the mixture out onto your prepared baking sheet in an even layer.

  6. 6

    Sprinkle the candy gems and marshmallows over the top while the chocolate is still wet.

  7. 7

    Place the tray in the refrigerator for about twenty minutes to let the chocolate harden.

  8. 8

    Break the mix into smaller chunks once it is set and store it in an airtight container.

๐Ÿ’ก Tips

Store your leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week. If your kitchen is very warm, keep it in the fridge so the chocolate does not melt. You can swap the white chocolate for milk or dark chocolate if you prefer a different flavor.
