Description

A delightful treat combining strawberry and white chocolate, perfect for Valentine’s Day gatherings.


Ingredients

  • 6 cups Chex cereal (divided)
  • 3/4 cup strawberry cake mix (the powder, not prepared)
  • 3/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 3/4 cup red candy melts (heaping)
  • 3/4 cup white candy melts (heaping)
  • 1 cup Valentine M&Ms
  • 2 TBS Valentine sprinkles


Instructions

  1. Separate the Chex cereal into two large bowls, placing three cups in each bowl.
  2. In a medium-sized bowl, combine the strawberry cake mix and powdered sugar. Set aside.
  3. In a small microwave-safe bowl, microwave the red candy melts at 50% power, heating in 1-minute increments until smooth. Stir until smooth.
  4. Pour the melted red candy over one bowl of Chex mix, gently stirring to coat the cereal thoroughly.
  5. Transfer the coated cereal into a gallon-sized ziplock bag, then scoop in 3/4 cup of the cake mix mixture. Seal the bag and shake it until the cereal is evenly coated. Pour it out onto parchment paper.
  6. Repeat the melting process with the white candy melts until smooth.
  7. Pour the melted white candy over the second bowl of Chex mix and stir to coat. Transfer this to another ziplock bag and mix with another 3/4 cup of the cake mix mixture. Shake to coat and pour it onto parchment paper.
  8. Once both batches are cool and set, combine the red Chex mix, white Chex mix, M&Ms, and Valentine sprinkles in a large bowl. Mix well.
  9. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to two days.
