→ Base Ingredients
01 -
1/2 cup powdered sugar (feel free to leave it white or color it pink!)
02 -
5 cups of Chex cereal (divide it into portions later)

1 cup of mini pretzels (Snyder's Gluten-Free ones work great!)
04 -
10 ounces of white chocolate for melting
→ Decorations
05 -
Sprinkles—optional but fun!
06 -
6 ounces of Valentine's M&Ms to add a sweet touch
# Instructions:
01 -
Line a large baking tray with parchment paper. Toss the powdered sugar into a big ziplock bag and get a big mixing bowl ready for the cereal.
02 -
Microwave the white chocolate in short 30-second bursts, stirring each time. Or, you can melt it over steam using a double boiler—your call.
03 -
Pour the melted chocolate over the cereal, mixing until it’s covered evenly. Put half of this mix into the ziplock bag with sugar and shake it up until coated.
04 -
Mix the mini pretzels with the remaining cereal that’s still in the bowl. Spread this across the prepared baking tray, sprinkle on the M&Ms and sprinkles, then scatter the powdered cereal from the bag on top.
05 -
Let it sit for about 20 minutes to firm up. Break apart any clumps before enjoying!
# Notes:
01 -
White chocolate made for melting works best, but add 1 teaspoon of coconut oil if you’re using chocolate chips.
02 -
Dyed powdered sugar can make it look festive and extra pretty!
