We usually make this at Christmas, but with the arrival of Grady, we didn’t get to it. We changed the colors of the chocolate to make it more up Skylar’s alley.
Here’s what you’ll need:
Pretzels
Peanuts
M&ms
Chex (corn and rice)
White baking chocolate
Food coloring
Mix everything except the baking chocolate and food coloring together in a large bowl.
Melt the chocolate in a large glass bowl.
Add food coloring.
Pour over the mix and coat completely. Pour out on a baking sheet lined with wax paper.
Melt more chocolate and add another color of food coloring.
Drizzle over the Chex mix.
Refrigerate to set.

Skylar has been asking to make one of these for awhile so we finally took the time to do it.
We just used a simple box white cake mix, some food coloring and canned frosting.
Prepare the cake mix to the directions on the box.
Spray an 8 cup glass Pyrex bowl with cooking spray and coat with flour.
Preheat the oven according to the directions on the cake mix box.
Prepare the cake mix and separate into several smaller bowls to add different food colorings.
Bake for 45 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean and cake is baked through.
Allow to cool completely. Hollow out a small hole in the middle to stand the Barbie in. Put the frosting in a piping bag and frost the cake to make the dress.
