Decide which ingredient items you'd like to include in your trail mix, and lay them out on a cookie sheet. Amounts are really up to you--how much you want to make, and if you like one item more than another. I like to use pretzels and cereal (Golden Grahams in this version) as the base, then the sweet stuff to complement.

Mix all the ingredients together on the cookie sheet.

Melt about 1/2 cup chocolate chips (regular or white chocolate) in the microwave in a glass bowl. Start with 20-30 seconds, stir well, then in 5 second intervals until melted.

Using a spoon, drizzle the chocolate over the trail mix. Let sit until hardened.

Store in an airtight container or place into bags for giving.
