Ingredients

• 5 cups Rice Chex cereal
• 1 cup Strawberry-flavored white chocolate chips (ensure nut-free)
• 1 cup Vanilla-flavored white chocolate chips (ensure nut-free)
• 0.5 cup Freeze-dried strawberries
• 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons Pink or red sprinkles (optional, ensure nut-free)

Directions

Step 1

Place the Rice Chex cereal in a large mixing bowl and set aside.

Step 2

Melt the strawberry-flavored white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 20-second intervals, stirring each time, until smooth.

Step 3

Pour the melted strawberry chocolate over half of the Rice Chex cereal (about 2.5 cups) and gently toss to coat evenly.

Step 4

Spread the coated cereal onto a parchment-lined baking sheet to cool and harden for about 10 minutes.

Step 5

Meanwhile, repeat the same melting process with the vanilla-flavored white chocolate chips in another microwave-safe bowl.

Step 6

Pour the melted vanilla chocolate over the remaining half of the Rice Chex cereal (another 2.5 cups) and gently toss to coat evenly.

Step 7

Spread the vanilla-coated cereal onto another parchment-lined baking sheet to cool and harden for about 10 minutes.

Step 8

Once both flavors of coated cereal have hardened, combine them in a large clean bowl.

Step 9

Add the freeze-dried strawberries, powdered sugar, and sprinkles (if using) to the bowl. Gently toss everything to distribute the ingredients evenly.

Step 10

Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
