5 cups rice chex mix
1 sleeve thin mint cookie mix, roughly chopped
1-1/2 cups semi-chocolate 
1-1/2 cups powdered sugar
  • Mix chex mix and thin mint cookies in large mixing bowl.
  • Melt chocolate and pour over chex mix.
  • In a brown bag, pour in powdered sugar and then the chocolate coated chex and cookies. Fold over to close and shake until all  blended.
