White Chocolate Gorp is the best!!! An awesome snack food. I followed the recipe to a "T", using Reese's Pieces for the chocolate candies. Everyone raved about this. I will be making this again. Thanks! Update: I made this for a second time using plain M&M's instead of Reese's Pieces. I have to say, the Reese's definitely send this one over the top! Although I think this recipe would be great no matter what the substitution.

Had put off making this as it sounded a bit time consuming, but just tried it and it's super quick and easy. Only made 1/2 the quantity and used small chocolate-coated honeycomb nuggets instead of the mini-candy coated chocolate pieces - a bit of a mistake as the chocolate on the outside melted into the white chocolate when I mixed it in. However it still tasted great! Also left out the toasted oat cereal and don't think I would have had enough chocolate to coat everything if I'd used it. My husband and guests absolutely loved this, will definitely be making it regularly.

This was okay but way to sweet and I really like sweets. I'll keep looking.

My 3 year old daughter loved this recipe. It's also very easy to make which is a big plus when you're in a hurry for something sweet. I'll probably make this again and experiment with different combinations of ingredients.

My kids and I preferred the ingredients mixed without the white chocolate. It was too sweet and clumped with the chocolate.

Love this recipe--I break off pieces of a chewy (non chocolate) penut bar such as (payday) and mix it in. It is even more addictive.

For Easter gifts, I mixed Fruity Pebble, Pastel marshmallows and pretzels. Poured melted white choc and chunky peanut butter over....beautiful! They looked like little Easter baskets with pastel eggs inside.

I got this recipe from the Indianapolis Junior League Cookbook 15 years ago and have made it every Christmas and Easter since. At the holidays I make a tin for everyone in my husband's office, and they start asking him for it at Thanksgiving! It is a nice gift for postman, school bus drivers, trash man etc. I sent this to both of my nephews in Iraq and it was the most requested item from both of them. I also send it with my son for his away golf matches on the bus. My original recipe called for 1-1.5 lbs of almond bark, not 2! I also use Crispix instead of Chex and use 1/2 cashews and 1/2 pecan halves. Either way it is great.

I made this twice - the first time using the recommended amount of white chocolate and I thought it was too sweet. The second time I halved the amount (I used white chocolate bark) and it was MUCH better.

This is a warning! This stuff is very addicting. Be sure to have someone to help you eat it, or you will likely eat the whole thing. I loved it! I was out of oat cereal, so I omitted it. I also used salted peanuts instead of cashews. But either way, I am sure you can't go wrong. The white chocolate is great with the salty flavors. Can't wait to make it again.

I'm not sure if this recipe could even be classified as "GORP" since it doesn't have granola, oats, raisins or peanuts. I think I would just call it "White Chocolate Snack Mix" or how about "this stuff is really tasty and super easy!" This is definitely a keeper. Thanks!

This stuff is addictive! I made this for a group and got loads of compliments. I used almond bark in place of the white chocolate (that my local store was out of).

I'm rating this a five star - not for myself - but for my teenagers. My son took a large baggy to high school and made many new friends - lol. It's on my list as a repeater.

I've made this for years but only with one pound of white chocolate instead of two, also with peanuts instead of cashews but they do sound worth a try. Also, use regular size candy only about half as much and get those colored according to the current holiday to make more feastive for the season.

This was good. I used white candy coating instead of white chocolate. I think this was a mistake. Still overall, good. My 2 year old nephew couldn't get enough of it.
