Reindeer Chow

We were told by a certain elf on a shelf, that while we always leave out cookies out for Santa, his reindeer have a sweet tooth too. So this year we are leaving a little sweet something for all his helpers too. After all, they are flying all night long. This Reindeer Chow is a favorite of all of Santa’s little helpers and it is a super easy recipe to throw together for any unexpected reindeer company or as a last minute hostess gift.

Get your kids to help you measure and pour the ingredients for this very kid friendly recipe. Reindeer Chow is a perfect recipe to whip up during the busy holiday season.

Feel free to customize this recipe with your favorite flavors to make it your own. If you don’t have one ingredient, use whatever you have on hand. It’s a great way to use up those little bits and pieces in your pantry.

Make a double or triple batch. One to share with the reindeer on Christmas Eve and one to share with all of your special holiday helpers and one to hide away. Everyone deserves an easy, sweet treat for the holidays. For last minute gifts, package it up in some fun holiday bags or boxes.
