Anything peppermint always makes me think of Christmas. The recipe looks good. I hadn’t heard of Chex in years, I used to get that cereal sometimes when I was a kid.
It sure is an added bonus when something is accidentally gluten free.
As to what to call it, I can see why crack mix is an apt name as it is so addictive as you said.
That's true Peppermint and chocolate is always part of the Christmas
