Did you know that Santa’s reindeer have a sweet tooth? We have it on very good authority that they wanted a snack while Santa is enjoying his cookies. So now we leave out a little something for all his helpers too. After all, they are doing all the heavy work. This Reindeer Chow is a favorite of Santa’s helpers and it is a quick, easy recipe to throw together for unexpected company or as a last minute hostess gift.
