This reindeer chow recipe is my fun and festive take on classic puppy chow. I love the mix of sweet and salty flavors! I always make a big batch for party favors on Christmas Eve since my whole family loves this reindeer mix. It’s such a fun and simple recipe. My kids love to shake it up to get it all coated in powdered sugar!
Tips for Success
Using a large bag filled with powdered sugar is the best way to get the Chex fully coated. You can get your kids to help with this bit too! I made this reindeer chow for Christmas, but you can easily mix things up to serve it as a treat throughout the year. Swap the red and green candy for orange and black for Halloween and add in mini chocolate eggs for Easter! You can add in any chocolate candies you like!
How to Store
This reindeer mix is a great make-ahead recipe for the holidays. Store leftover reindeer chow in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks or in the freezer for up to 34 months. Let come to room temperature, then stir in the candies before serving.
