Peppermint is one of my favorite flavors at Christmastime (or all winter). Case in point: Peppermint Patty Brownies, Chocolate Peppermint Swirl Cookies, Triple Peppermint Cookies, Peppermint Cheesecake Bars, Candy Cane Bundt Cake.
I knew when I saw this recipe that I would have to try it - it's so easy to make and so addicting! But the great thing is, you can just eat a few pieces (or try to eat just a few) after you've sampled several cookies... (not that I have any experience with that.)
This is a great addition to your holiday snacking fare! Hooray for Peppermint.

Peppermint Puppy Chow
5 cups Rice Chex cereal
10 ounces vanilla flavored Almond Bark
1 cup crushed candy canes
1 cup powdered sugar
Pour the cereal into a large bowl. Place the almond bark in a microwave safe bowl and heat at 50% power at 45 second intervals until melted. Add the cereal, stirring and folding until the cereal is completely covered. Fold in the crushed candy canes.
Pour the powdered sugar into a zipped-top bag. Pour the cereal mixture in next. Seal the bag or container and shake until all the cereal is coated with the sugar mixture.
Discard excess powder. Store at room temperature up to 2 weeks, if it lasts that long!
