    What exactly is Reindeer Munch?

    Reindeer munch or reindeer chow as some people call it is festive sweet and salty snack. This will be my first time setting it out for Santa's reindeer. Usually when I make this it's gone in a couple days.

    This is a great recipe to make with kids

    My son loves helping make this reindeer munch recipe. Mostly, because he gets to sneak M&M's when I'm not looking. With the exception of melting the chocolate, my five year old son helps every step of the way.

    What other things can I add into Reindeer Chow?!

    If you want to make this recipe your own, here's some ideas on variations, substitutions and additional mix-ins that would go great:

    • Yogurt covered raisins
    • Popcorn/kettle corn
    • Chocolate peanut butter cups
    • Candied pecans or almonds
    • Other cereals like Cheerios or Cinnamon Toast Crunch

    How do you store Reindeer Munch?

    This is best kept in an air-tight container inside the refrigerator. It'll be good for about a 1 weeks.

    My name is Cari and I'm the person behind FatgirlHedonist.com. I'm born and raised in Miami (Hialeah if you'd like specifics) and proud Latina. I'm a single mom to a very curious toddler. I completed a culinary program in high school that made my love of food blossom, but my career went in a very different direction. No matter what turns my life has taken, cooking, baking and eating have always been three of my favorite activities. I'm lucky enough that I can have this blog as an outlet for those three passions.
