Reindeer Feed

My best friend was going to D.C to visit her sister who just gave birth.

I felt the need to send something sweet.

So I made reindeer feed.

I'm assuming the name is a take on "Puppy Chow". I have no idea why they call Puppy Chow, Puppy Chow, either, but this has peppermint, so I guess it needed a holiday name.

Anyway, I made it. I didn't particularly care for it. The combination of rice cereal and peppermint did not do it for me. So it was a very good thing most of the batch was going on a road trip. I think I took the rest to work, where it was eaten, probably without much comment.
