I recently made a batch of Sugar Cookie Chex Mix and gave it a bit of a Christmas makeover for the holiday season. Now, I’ve made several different kinds of Chex Mix in the past, but this is one of my favorites. It’s super easy to make, and it looks great.
This year I’m planning on making Rudolph and Frosty Mason Jars for gifts. I’m going to use the Christmas Sugar Cookie recipe for the Snowman Mason Jar gifts, and I’m thinking the Chocolate Caramel Drizzles Chex Mix recipe for the Rudolph Mason Jars.Don’t you think that would be a fun yet affordable Christmas gift for a friend or coworker? I know I would love to get something like that, cute and delicious.You can’t go wrong in my book!
Plus, you can even give them to your friend who can only eat gluten-free foods if you make sure all the ingredients you purchase are gluten-free! I didn’t make this batch gluten-free, but I did use the Rice Chex cereal, and the recipe can very easily be made using other gluten-free ingredients.

- Melt white chocolate, if you do this in the microwave, you can place on high for 30 to 60 seconds or until stirred smoothly.Just be sure not to get it too hot and to stop and stir about every 20 seconds.
- Using a food storage bag,cut off the corner, pour white chocolate into the bag and use it to drizzle white chocolate on top of the Chex mix.
