This recipe for Easter Chex Mix with cheddar snack crackers and Easter egg M&MS is seriously addicting! It’s the perfect spring snack mix.
Today, I am going to share with you the most addicting recipe for Chex mix that I have ever tasted. This stuff is so good. So make up a big batch to take to a potluck or share with friends and family.
I’ve got an Easter-themed Chex mix recipe today, but it really is perfect for any spring gathering. Easter peanut butter M&Ms and chickadee cheddar crackers add a colorful, seasonal, pop.
I chose peanut butter M&Ms to make the recipe little-kid friendly (we don’t want them choking on nuts!). But you can use any type you want. Also, I used the Target brand of cheddar snack crackers. Annie’s also makes cheddar crackers that look like little bunnies.
I served up my Easter snack mix in little containers from the dollar store, and it was a total hit. The sweetness of the chex and coconut combined with the salty cheddar crackers is beyond addicting. I had to stop myself before I got a tummy ache from over-indulging!
The twins loved this too. They dug around in their little bowls of snack mix, looking for all of the eggs, of course! Then Miss B went prancing around the house with her dollar store container on her arm.
I hope you enjoy this snack mix as much as my family did! Enjoy!
