Growing up my dad would make a few holiday treats each year and Chex Mix was always one of them. Even to this day, he doesn’t miss a holiday season without making at least one batch of his famous holiday Chex Mix.
It’s no secret that I love homemade Chex Mix. It’s been one of my very favorite holiday snacks since I was a kid. And there were always a few ingredients I liked more than others so as an adult, I created my own version of what I believe to be the very best holiday Chex Mix recipe.
With the perfect ratio of ingredients and bold sauce, this is so addicting you won’t be able to stop eating it and you won’t want to! So if you’re looking for a killer snack this season, look no further. I make at least three batches of this each year, it’s that good.
