Making Reindeer Food

Last night Leah, Sam, and I made Reindeer Food. This was our first holiday baking session, and since we did not begin until 9:00, we stopped after three batches.

Leah and Sam took turns pouring in the rice chex and chocolate chips.

Leah stirred everything all together.

Here is the Reindeer Food cooling on waxed paper.

Clay joined us in time to tasted the finished product, lick the bowl, and then help with the packaging.

All Ready!

Recipe for Reindeer Food

1 bag milk chocolate chips
1 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup butter
1 box rice chex cereal
3 cups powdered sugar

Melt chips, peanut butter, and butter in microwave. Pour over rice chex in a large bowl. Stir gently to coat. Add powdered sugar and stir again until the sugar coats the rice chex mix. Spread on waxed paper to cool.
