Host A Chex Mix Party
I love a reason to get together with friends. I love the planning, the decorating, the executing and those sweet, wonderful friend conversations. Recently, I hosted a Chex Party Mix-change for my church friends. The Chex Mix-change is a new twist on the cookie exchange. So fun!
We had 14 different variations of Chex mix. Seriously!!
Even Loaded Baked Potato Chex Mix!
I made a bunch of cute party food labels {tutorial here} for each Chex Mix variety!
The Pumpkin Pie Chex Mix is my favorite. I will definitely be making more for the holidays! The recipe calls for Wheat Chex, but I just used an extra cup of Cinnamon Chex and Honey Nut Chex to substitute.
I bought a pack of cute Fall plates from Hobby Lobby with a 40% off coupon.
Everyone brought their recipes and I had a pack of index cards and pens, so recipes could be exchanged as well.
Conversations were riveting. 🙂
We tasted, divided and laughed. Oh, how we laughed!
We used sandwich bags as well as treat bags with ribbon to divide up the Chex mixes.
I brought along things to package and decorate.
How cute is this?! We had so much fun!

I love chex mix but never buy it! This would be fun! My favorite is the rice one.
My favorite chex mix is puppy chow!
I must admit I have never tried all the different recipes for Chex Mix. I like the traditional. Cranberry caramel and the pumpkin are on my to make list.
My favorite is the orginial but I have not had many other kinds. I am looking forward to making the pumpkin pie version, sounds yummy.
I love the Original Chex Mix, but I have not tried any other kinds.
I haven’t made all the other yummy sounding flavors (but will have to now, LOL) I do love the traditional. It is sooo addicting.
My favorite is Original Chex Mix. I can’t wait to try Pumpkin Pie.
Oh, this is a great idea. There is a mix that you melt white choc. on. Can’t think of what its called, but its addicting. Would love to try this with my friends.
Love the Muddy Buddies! I also made the Halloween Chex Mix last weekend and it was a huge hit! Love your website!
I love that Reindeer Food version… with the white chocolate and crushed candy canes? Yum!
I love Puppy Chow and the Classic Chex Mix. And I am SO going to copy your party idea!! That would be so fun!

I make huge bowls of Chex Mix all holiday season long. Love, love, LOVE this idea!! The Cinnamon Chex is my favorite, followed closely by Rice, then by Corn……… 🙂
My favorite Chex Mix is the original. I love the garlic/Worcheshire sauce taste combination.
I would love to win this. I make several varieties every Thanksgiving and Christmas for friends and family to take home with them. How fun would it be to get together and share recipes.

I LOVE puppy chow chex mix!!!
I don’t really have a favorite, I like how they have one for whatever mood I am in. I would love to try the pumpkin pie mix. I haven’t tried that one yet.

I love Puppy Chow! But what I really love is that Chex has so many gluten free varieties that I can feed my kid with celiac disease. We would have a blast with this!
How fun!
I only recently found your site and check it every day to see what you are doing! I come from a long line of snackers and a Chex Mix Party sounds great! Something for everyone – sweet, salty, spicy, savory!! Hmm… wonder which one should I start off with?!!
Wonderful Idea. I have never made a mix myself. I usually buy the pre-made but I am curious to taste the Pumkin Pie.
White Chocolate Chex Mix is a holiday tradition here. I don’t make it, my friend does, but all 4 of my boys anxiously wait for delivery day! I am excited to try some of the abover recipes and deliver a batch to her!
What a cool idea! Any type of chex mix that is spicy! 🙂
I have only tried regular Chex mix but I love it!
Oh my the damage that could do to my hips LOL. I love this idea!
My son loves to eat just plain Chex (he’s 3)! I don’t even know what kind is my favorite – I do love me some puppy chow! It’d be fun to try new kinds.
I love Honey Nut Chex but my favorite recipe is Puppy Chow! Yum!
I love the cinnamon chex mix — by the handful!

Chex Mix is my favorite snack. I have never even seen all these flavors. The toffee one sounds divine. T hanks for a cool idea.
Ummm….so many options! I never knew there were all of those recipes for Chex Mix. I am a puppy chow lover myself, but original is tasty as well.
We make one called “Sweet Southern Pecan” Fall chex mix – it’s yummy!!! I would LOVE to win this, sure could use it!!!((1955nursehjc4me(at)myway(dot)com)) Thanks for the chance….
my mom has the best recipe for chex mix, i’m pretty much addicted. thankfully she only makes it around the holidays.
WOW! What fun this sounds like?! I’ve only had the original — and, of course, my mom makes it THE BEST; but after just skimming over some of the recipes on Chex website, I’m kind of seeing several that can become new favorites. First ones on the list would have to be the chocolate coffee toffee chex mix & loaded baked potato chex mix!! Sounds yummy!
We make one called “Sweet Southern Pecan” Fall chex mix – it’s yummy!!! I would LOVE to win this, sure could use it. Could make some for Thanksgiving AND Christmas/New Years! Love to try the other varities as well 😉 ((1955nursehjc4me(at)myway(dot)com)) Thanks for the chance….

What a neat idea! I must admit a sweet tooth so my favorite “chex mix” is puppy chow. Yum! 🙂
Tried the pumpkin pie version last year and loved it! Looking forward to the loaded baked potato now – yum!
Loved this party idea. Thank you for sharing it with us. It is a great idea for my bible study gals. Also want to make up the many recipes for Christmas. Who wouldn’t want an assortment of goodies? I have been a fan of the original mix for years and make it often. My grandson and I tried the recipe calling for the powdered sugar coating. It is so messy to eat, but yummy. He likes to make it himself then take it to school. (know his teachers will be glad we now have an alternative offering.
This will be a great idea to do with the cubs scouts the kids will love it and the parents too, thank you!
Wonderful idea! I’ve only made the original chex mix (I’m so boring). But I do buy bold and dark. And I love muddy buddies. I can’t wait to make puppy chow and pumpkin pie. 🙂
What a fun idea! I love puppy chow mix, but after seeing the pumpkin mix I might change my mind.

Puppy chow is probably my favorite — but I’d love to ranch out and try some new kinds!
I like the Traditional kind. Haven’t tried any others…
I haven’t tried any of the other flavors, yet. I really like the traditional, though… 🙂 Would love to win this!
My favorite chex mix is also puppy chow. It is so good and very addictive! 🙂
Since I am a grandma and like all things traditional, I would have to say that my favorite chex mix is the old traditional one. However, my grandgirls have convinced me that reindeer mix is also very good. I cannot wait to try out the pumpkin pie mix! Love your blog, BTW!
My favorite is the puppy chow Chex mix! Yummy chocolate and peanut butter!!
There are three Chex mixes that make my favorite list: pumpkin pie, cranberry caramel, and the hot cocoa! LOL. I’ve narrowed down my choice to the cranberry caramel Chex mix. 🙂 Having the chance to have my own Chex mix party would be awesome because I would totally do this with the young women from my church youth group (my husband and I, both assist).
I’ve narrowed down my choice to the Cranberry Caramel Chex mix. 🙂 I’m thinking that I will host a Chex mix party with the young women from the youth group at my church. The blessings will be great… fellowship and eating different Chex mix. 🙂
I love just traditional homemade Chex mix.
I love to make Muddy Buddy Mix. Its super easy and a family favorite!
I love my mom’s homemade Chex Mix the best…she uses the traditional recipe, but add Cheerios to it and those are my favorite part!

I love the idea of doing this instead of a cookie exchange. I would try the hot cocoa mix.
My favorite is the Chex Mix that my Mama makes every Christmas. It’s the original recipe, but gets a little spicy the next day, and it’s so good! It isn’t the Season without it.
How much fun is that?! We love Chex Mix…I like the Original flavor, but T likes the Bold Party Mix. Would love to host one. 🙂

I love the original recipe for the chex mix. My family calls it trash!
i am a rice chex gal. 🙂
I feel like I have been missing out! The only kind I’ve ever had is my dad’s recipe which is the original version with a little extra something! Delicious BUT I really want to try these flavors…especially the pumpkin and chex brittle!
the puppy chow chex mix looks delicious!!!
my favorite chex mix is the puppy chow chex mix.
The Pumpkin Pie sounds so delish!! Want to try that this Fall! I have only had the original chex mix so far. i recently came across a Chex Mix recipe which i am definetely going to make soon called “Nutella Puppy Chow”, since my family loves Nutella!
Pumpkin pie sounds amazing…I made a Halloween Chex Mix for our Halloween party last weekend but I didn’t flavor it differently, just added harvest m&ms & candy corn to it & put it in individual Halloween snack bags
I love the classic Chex Mix, but we do a chocolate version too with cocoa, m & ms, etc that is so good too. Your Pumpkin Pie mix sounds amazing. We’ll have to try it!

I would love to win this Chex Prize. I just found your site, and was so excited to learn of this idea. Also when I saw the winning ended today, I was extra excited.
The recipe I use is with all three, rice, corn, wheat,
whorhirse sauce, and I add peanuts or pecans, seasoning salt, and butter.
oh I hope I’m not too late! I was looking to do something new this year as I just got a call to let me know that “they” wanted something different this year instead of our annual cookie swap. I love puppy chow or white trash mix! I never dreamed of a chex mix party. How clever!
My favorite is rice chex.
