Have only 15 minutes to make your goodies for this year’s Holiday Party or Sweets / Cookie Exchange, well that is all you need. 

With the holidays approaching, there will be plenty of cookies, cakes, and sweets, but why not try something different and bring one of the newest varieties of Chex Mix.  Plus, you can put a new spin on the usual Cookie Exchange and host your own Chex Party Mix-Change.
Thanks to Chex and My Blog Spark I was sent a package that included Chex Cereal, recipes, a gift card, and takeout containers to host a Chex Party Mix-Change.

So what is involved with a Chex Party Mix-Change?

Simply invite some friends over for a party and ask everyone to make enough of their favorite Chex Party Mix recipe to exchange with party guests. Taste, mix, swap, and share the recipes, putting the treats in easy DIY packages for everyone to take home.



Check out these 4 Chex Party Mix Recipes that can be made in the microwave in 15 minutes for your party.

– Chex PB & Chocolate Blast – Is there really a better combination than peanut butter and chocolate? Yes, when Chex cereal is added!

 – Chex Pumpkin Pie Crunch – Mix things up and try this mouthwatering alternative to the beloved holiday pie.

 – Hot Buttered Yum Chex Mix – A combination of cinnamon, brown sugar, honey and marshmallows blend effortlessly together in a crazy-delicious, gluten free crunchy mix.

 -Chex Caramel Chocolate Drizzles – Melted chocolate, chewy caramel and a delightful crunch carry this gluten-free party mix recipe from microwave to table in 15 minutes.


    I decided to try the Caramel Chocolate Drizzles and the results were delicious!.  


    The recipe only requires 6 ingredients.



    And was ready in 15 minutes. After I prepared it, I put it into the refrigerator to set, and then put it into individual containers.


    Ready to host your own Chex Party Mix-Change? Check out these great tips from fellow bloggers to serve as inspiration for your party!

    My Blessed Life – “I made a bunch of cute party food labels for each Chex Mix variety!… We used sandwich bags as well as treat bags with ribbon to divide up the Chex mixes.”

    Cooking with Books – “To keep fresh: pour into individual bags and place inside a fun box with a recipe for more holiday Chex Party Mixes! Your guests will have something fresh to snack on the next day!”
