Ingredients

  • 2 cups of white chocolate chips
  • 1 cup of mini marshmallows
  • 1 cup of pretzels, broken into small pieces
  • 1 cup of dried cranberries
  • 1 cup of salted peanuts
  • 1 cup of cashews
  • 1 cup of almonds

Directions

  1. Melt the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat them in the microwave for 30 seconds at a time, stirring between each interval until completely melted and smooth.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the mini marshmallows, pretzel pieces, dried cranberries, salted peanuts, cashews, and almonds.
  3. Pour the melted white chocolate over the mixture in the mixing bowl. Stir well to coat all the ingredients evenly with the chocolate.
  4. Spread the mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Use a spatula or the back of a spoon to press the mixture down and ensure it is evenly distributed.
  5. Refrigerate the baking sheet for about 1 hour, or until the white chocolate has hardened.
  6. Once the white chocolate is firm, break it into small chunks or bite-sized pieces.
  7. Transfer the White Chocolate Gorp to an airtight container or resealable plastic bags for storage.
  8. Enjoy your delicious White Chocolate Gorp as a snack on its own or mix it with other trail mix ingredients for a tasty and energizing treat.
