+ This Chex Mix Neighbor Gift is brought to you by Chex™ +
Oh it’s that time of the year again! One of my favorites for sure. I LOVE creating fun new ideas for neighbor gifts.
There is just something magical about getting together with your kiddos and putting together some gifts to give to those you love. They don’t need to be expensive or time consuming at all. It’s really a chance to take something simple to a friend, neighbor or even Bob (the mail man) to let them know that you care. To let them know that you notice all of the little things they do day-in and day-out to make your life a little better.
My first offering for this year is a sinfully scrumptious treat…
BETTER THAN SEX CHEX MIX!!
Yea, I didn’t come-up with the name or the recipe, this amazing concoction is directly from the folks at Chex! That means it going to be fantastic.
Look at that crazy pile of yumminess!
It’s super simple to make and it’s packed full of all the goodies that everyone loves… caramel, brown sugar, chocolate, butter, Chex cereal, mini-marshmallows, mini-Reese’s cups. Yea, it’s kinda amazing, here’s a link to the RECIPE.
Now, once you have it all mixed up and ready to give to your friends and neighbors and Bob (the mail man), it’s time to package the goodies up. I’m going to share THREE easy ways to share this amazing treat.
First, I found a nice basket at Target, but I’m sure we all have some type of basket laying around that would work. I lined the basket with parchment paper and then filled it with the Better Than Sex Chex Mix. To decorate the basket, I used a metal Christmas ornament that I found at Rod Works. The ornament made the perfect decor for the basket. It has a metal hanger that I folded over the top of the basket and it secured it nicely in place. My lucky friends will not only receive and yummy treat, they will receive a cute basket and a Christmas ornament as well. Triple win!
Next idea, I filled a large half-gallon Ball Jar with our sinful concoction and then tied a bow (ribbon is from Michaels) around the middle for a simple yet scrumptious gift.
Want to make it even easier? Grab a large cellophane bag from Michaels and fill your bag with the Chex Mix and and tie it off with a bow and bam, your done! It couldn’t be any easier!
There you have it… One amazing Chex Mix recipe that your friends will be raving about, packaged three different ways. Time to add some Chex Cereal to your shopping list and start making some Holiday goodies. Visit Chex.com for even more fantastic Chex Mix ideas perfect for Holiday gift giving.

Do you know how much it took to fill the half gallon ball jar?
Ps. I met you at the Pinners conference and I think you are amazing!
