Holiday Cheer - Reindeer Chow

First, we have a recipe for Santa's reindeer - food to help them fly all night and also to help them find your house. Then there's a recipe to make hyper those who are waiting for Santa.....

Reindeer Food


Ingredients:

1 cup rolled oats
¼ cup sugar
3 tbsp red colored sugar
3 tbsp green colored sugar

Directions:

Mix together and place in a plastic bag. Sprinkle on the lawn on Christmas Eve. The smell of the oats and the glitter of the sugar will help the Santa’s reindeer find YOUR HOME!


Reindeer Chow

 Ingredients:
 1 stick butter
1 cup chocolate chips
1/2 cup peanut butter
7 cups Rice Chex cereal
2 cups powdered sugar

Directions:

Melt the butter, chocolate chips, and peanut butter in a pan over medium; stirring to blend. Put cereal in a large bowl and add mixture. Mix well. Add powder sugar and stir until well coated. Keep in a sealed container.

The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow,
Gave the lustre of midday to objects below,
When, what to my wondering eyes should appear,
But a miniature sleigh, and eight tiny reindeer.
- Clement Moore, The Night Before Christmas

Hi, Robyn. I haven't made this for this year yet. But I did make it last year. It's really good. We also made the Reindeer Food and put it out so the reindeer could find our house and lead Santa's here.
