Rudolph’s Favorite Treat!
This reindeer food recipe is one of our favorite traditions that adds a touch of MAGIC to the Christmas season. We make it every season, usually a few days before Christmas. It’s the perfect treat to leave out for Santa’s reindeer on Christmas Eve, but also a delicious snack for us humans to enjoy! It’s made with a mixture of cereal, pretzels, peanuts, and M&Ms, all coated in a creamy white chocolate bark. Just 15 minutes of hands-on work then you simply let it set! Try our Christmas Snack Mix or Christmas Puppy Chow for more favorites!
