This fun sweet and salty snack mix only takes a few minutes to make and the results are delicious. This version is decked out in red and green for the merriest of white trash snack goodness, but the colors could easily be changed for any occasion.
Place a large strip of wax paper on the counter or on a couple of baking sheets.
Put the bugles, pretzels and peanuts in a large bowl.
In a separate bowl, melt the white chocolate. I like doing this in a glass bowl in the microwave. Do short 20-30 second intervals, stirring well between each until it stirs smooth. White chocolate scorches easily, so short bursts is the best way to keep that from happening. Alternatively you can melt it in a double boiler, just be sure to wipe any condensation off the bottom of the pan before trying to pour the chocolate.
Drizzle the melted white chocolate over the salty snacks and toss to coat.
Quickly spread the mixture out over the wax paper, then sprinkle with M&Ms and sprinkles.
Allow to cool and set completely, then break into bite sized pieces and store in an airtight container until ready to eat.
