In a large bowl, stir together the Chex, pretzels, Cheerios, Saltines, and peanuts.
3 cups corn or rice Chex cereal, 2 cups mini pretzels, 1 ½ cups Cheerios, 1 ½ cups mini Saltines, 1 cup salted peanuts
In a separate microwave-safe bowl, melt the almond bark according to the package directions.
14 ounces vanilla almond bark
Drizzle the melted almond bark over the cereal mixture.
Toss to coat.
Spread the cereal mix onto a large rimmed baking sheet.
Sprinkle the M&Ms over the top.
7 ½ ounces M&Ms
Let cool to room temperature before serving.

Chex: I like to use corn or rice Chex, but you could use a combination of the two if you prefer.
Pretzels: I use the small twists, but the small pretzel sticks would also work.
Cheerios: I use the plain cereal. Feel free to sub in another flavor if you prefer.
Saltines: If you can't find the minis, you can use the premium round crackers or substitute more cereal for the crackers.
Peanuts: I like to use the lightly salted peanuts to give the mix a bit of sweet and saltiness. You can use unsalted or omit the nuts if you prefer.
Vanilla almond bark: I use enough to have a light coating on the cereal mix. If you like a heavier coat of almond bark, feel free to increase the amount accordingly.
M&Ms: I used sugar cookie M&Ms in this mix. Feel free to use any flavor that you like.
