Just got done making this Chex Mix. My husband and boys would prefer it without powdered sugar. They love the part that is mixed with sprinkles and M&M's.... I used white melting bars and threw in some of the vanilla chips in the mix like the M&M's.

I would not suggest white baking chips, you need to buy white chocolate bars, so the mixture is creamier to mix with the cereal. I found that White baking chips do not mix well with the other ingredients, like peanut butter and butter. Other than that tip - my kids loved it and it looked great!
