OMG Snack Mix

Heard about this and had to try it.
When you serve this at a party, football tailgater, holiday get-together, etc., you will not believe how fast it will disappear.  Don't know what else to call it but OMG Snack Mix.



Ingredients you will need:
1 single serve Orville Redenbacher microwave popcorn (or brand of your choice)
Kelloggs Corn Pops cereal
Fritos corn chips (regular)
Almond Bark Squares (white chocolate), I used 2 squares.
1/2 tsp of vegetable oil

Tools/Utensils needed:
Fork
Small pan
Rubber scraper/spatula
Cookie sheet

Directions:

1.  Using your small pan, on medium heat, slowly melt the white chocolate squares.  I stirred mine frequently to help it along.  Once melted I added about a 1/2 tsp of vegetable oil to make the drizzling a little smoother.   Keep on a very low setting just enough keep it melted and not start to thicken up.

2.  Place your popcorn, corn pops, and fritos out on the cookie sheet.  I divided mine equally in thirds, onto the cookie sheet.  Make sure they are all layed out, not too thickly because you want to be able to get good coverage when drizzling the white chocolate.  (you can layer later).


3.  Using the fork, dip into the white chocolate and drizzle all over the popcorn/fritos/corn pops.  You will need to repeatedly dip into the pan to keep drizzling.  I periodically used the spatula to bring all the melted chocolate to one side of the pan so I could dip in to it easier.  Once I had good coverage on the mixture I added another layer of all three ingredients and drizzled chocolate again.  I got 3 layers worth before my chocolate ran out.



4.  Leave this set out until the white chocolate sets up again.  Put mixture into a large bowl and mix it up a bit, parts of it will be stuck together, I broke it up as I put it into the bowl.
IF you have leftover (slim chance), put in a ziplock bag - this will keep it all crunchy and not stale/chewy.



SERVE  *watch your hands or you may get bitten in the rush to eat this!  Ha!
Not a very heathy treat... but ah who cares!
