In a double boiler or microwave safe bowl melt red candy melts and 1 tablespoon of shortening. If using the microwave heat in 30 second increments stirring in between, until melted and smooth. If using a double boiler heat over medium-high heat and stir frequently until smooth.

While the candy is melting, place 3 tablespoons of powdered sugar in a large zip-close baggie, and lay out a piece of parchment or wax paper for cooling the cereal.

Once the candy has melted, pour in one cup of Rice Chex. Gently stir until the cereal is completely and evenly coated with the candy mixture.

Spoon the cereal into the baggie and gently toss and shake the bag to coat the cereal with powdered sugar. Pour the covered cereal into a sieve and shake to remove excess powdered sugar.

Spread evenly across the prepared wax paper or parchment to cool and harden.

Repeat with the blue candy melts and the second cup of Chex.

Once your Chex are completely cooled, it is time to assemble the snack mix.

In a large bowl, combine the Chex, yogurt covered pretzels, M&Ms, and yogurt covered raisins. Gently stir to evenly distribute and serve!

Store in an airtight container.
