Ingredients
  

  • 6 cups chex cereal, I used half honey nut & half rice
  • 2 cups pretzels
  • 1 cup whole wheat or honey nut cheerios
  • ½ cup almonds
  • ¼ cup coconut oil, melted
  • ¼ cup honey
  • cup powdered peanut butter
  • ¼ teaspoon salt, to taste, optional
  • ½ cup dark chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Put the Chex cereal, pretzels, cheerios, and almonds in a large Crock Pot.
  • In a small bowl mix together the coconut oil, honey, powdered peanut butter, and optional salt.
  • Pour the coconut oil mixture over the cereal mixture and stir gently until well coated.
  • Put the lid on but leave a small ¼-inch crack in the lid. This allows the moisture to escape and for it to turn crispy.
  • Cook on low for 3 hours. Stir after 1 hour, 2 hours, and 2 ½ hours. Watch carefully to keep it from burning.
  • Pour the mixture out on a baking sheet and allow it to cool. Once it's cool enough to not melt the chocolate, stir that in.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

The salt brings more of a salty-sweet taste to the recipe. If you are sensitive to sodium, leave it out or adjust it.
Store leftovers in an airtight container on the counter or dark space for up to two weeks.
