Valentine's Day Trash, candy coated cereal with pretzels and peanut M&Ms will wow anyone's guest. Change out the color of the M&Ms for each holiday!
I am so behind on my blog post that I am determined to catch up this week.
This trash is an all time family favorite. I make it for Christmas, Valentine's, Easter, and whenever there is something to celebrate.
The basic recipe for the trash is the same each time. I just changed the color of the M&Ms for what we are celebrating.
For Valentine's, I use the cute pink, red, and white M&Ms.
This makes a great treat to give as gifts in little holiday bags also.
Valentine Trash

Ingredients:
- 24 oz. vanilla flavored candy coating (almond bark)
6 cups Kellogg's Crispix cereal
3 cups round shaped pretzels
16 oz. M&M'S Peanut Chocolate Candies in Valentine's Colors or plain M&M's
In a medium microwave safe bowl, melt chocolate in the microwave for 2-4 minutes at 30 SECOND intervals until chocolate is melted; set aside.
Add cereal, pretzels, and M&Ms in a large bowl. Pour melted chocolate over the cereal mixture.
Using a large spatula to fold altogether, making sure not to break up the cereal to much.
Once the mixture is coated really well with the chocolate, pour it onto a table lined with waxed paper.
Once cooled, break up into pieces and store in an air tight container.
