Preparation

  • Cover a large area of counter space with waxed paper and tape it down.
  • Mix pretzels, corn cereal, peanuts, and candy-coated milk chocolate pieces together in a large bowl.
  • Melt white chocolate in the top of a double boiler over simmering water, stirring frequently and scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching.
