Valentine’s Day Snack Mix + Free Printable
I see Valentine’s Day as an excuse to eat red and pink colored things. You can keep your overpriced flowers and your fancy dinners.
Just give me some red or pink sweets. I do, however, prefer that chocolate is involved in some way.
If you’re looking for a quick, easy, and delicious Valentine’s Day snack mix recipe that involves pink and red goodies then I have you covered with this white chocolate snack mix.
You may have tried something very familiar. I’ve heard it called anything from Christmas crack (because it’s so addicting) to white trash (because it’s taking a bunch of random stuff, putting it together, and covering it in white chocolate). Now I know those aren’t PC at all but I didn’t name them.
I thought I’d also include a fun, free printable because I’m nice like that.
Slap some of the mix into a bag, print the snack bag toppers, staple them on, and you appear to be the mom who has her stuff together.
But if you don’t want to be seen as a “Pinterest Mom” then skip the printable, make the snack mix, keep it all to yourself, and send some suckers with your kids’ Valentine’s.
Here’s the white chocolate snack mix recipe. Keep in mind that this can be easily edited to fit your tastes. For example, if someone in your family is allergic to peanuts, omit the peanuts. Or if you really like pretzels, add more. If you want it to be more chocolatey, add more chocolate. It’s kinda hard to mess this one up.
- 2 cups corn Chex cereal
- 1 cup pretzels
- 1 cup Cheerios
- 1 cup M&Ms
- 1 cup peanuts
- 2 cups white chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
-
Combine Chex cereal, pretzels, Cheerios, M&Ms, peanuts in large bowl.
-
In separate bowl, mix oil and white chocolate chips and melt in either the microwave or double boiler.
-
Pour melted chocolate over dry ingredients and fold everything together.
-
Spread mixture out onto wax paper to cool and set.
-
Note: You can substitute the white chocolate chips and oil for white melting chocolate.
And here’s the snack bag toppers printable (click on it to print it).
There’s two toppers on a sheet. I recommend printing on card stock. Print, cut each out, fold down the middle, and staple onto a snack bag with the snack mix inside.
And guess what! I’ve teamed with 11 other bloggers to share some delicious Valentine’s Day recipes. So make sure you head over to their blogs and check out their tasty creations.

This looks so delicious! Is it bad to be pinterest mom? haha! I think they are so cute with those little topper printables!
Thanks! Nope. I just know that some moms don’t strive to be “Pinterest Moms” because they live busy lives and don’t have time to go the extra mile. Pinterest Mom or not, it doesn’t matter to me. 🙂
I’m not able to download the printable or see the recipe. I’m wondering if the links are broken.
Click the printer icon on the upper right of the recipe. Click on the image of the printables. And then you have to right click and “save as” or “print”.
Hi Chelsea,
Thanks for getting back to me,
Last night I could see both recipe and the printable initially on my iPhone and my iPad and then just a minute later I couldn’t. When I view your blog post on my computer this morning the recipe and the printable are both available.
On my iPhone where the recipe is on your post it says [amd-zlrcipe-recipe:2] the printable picture is now available, however last night it just said something like embedded picture.
I have now been able to get the recipe and save it for making this delicious treat for my staff.
Thanks for your help,
Robin
Can’t see it on my iPhone either. Maybe put the recipe in text too?
Hey, Arina! I figured out that it’s a technical problem so I’m having my tech person look into it. It’ll hopefully be fixed today.
Thanks for letting me know, Robin. I figured out that it’s a technical issue so I’m having my tech person look into it.
This looks super yummy! I think I will keep it all to myself! 😉
Thank you for share this! It’s really cute snack mix <3
This looks like a simply delicious snack idea for Valentine’s Day! We have been looking for a good treat to have for our homeschool valentines day party this might be it. I’m right with you in thinking that Valentine’s Day is a reason to eat red and pink things, we always eat way to many red and pink goodies around the holiday!
Well, I know what I will be handing out on Valentine’s Day! That is if I don’t eat it all myself. This mix looks adorable. Thanks for sharing.
Wow…this looks so delish!!! Definitely going to have to try making it!!!
Oh, this is just perfect for valentines day and that printable topper is just great! 🙂

How many bags of mix does this make?
I don’t even love white chocolate, but this looks amazing! This Christmas, while I was doing the church bake sales with my mom, I found a mix like this and it had crushed Oreos in it. AWHMUHGAWD, it was SO GOOD!
How many people does this feed?
Super delicious! Made a batch for my family dessert on Valentine’s day. My kind of recipe easy peasy. Tyfs! 😊
