Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 cups Rice Chex cereal
- 10 ounces Pink candy melts
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup Sprinkles (optional, for decoration)
Instructions
Place the Rice Chex cereal in a large mixing bowl and set aside.
Melt the pink candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl according to the package instructions. Typically, microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until the candy melts are smooth and fully melted.
Stir in the vanilla extract into the melted candy to enhance the flavor.
Pour the melted candy mixture over the Rice Chex cereal, gently tossing with a spatula to evenly coat all the pieces.
Transfer the coated cereal into a large resealable plastic bag or a large mixing bowl with a lid.
Add the powdered sugar to the bag or bowl. Seal the bag or cover the bowl with the lid and shake gently to evenly coat the cereal in powdered sugar.
If desired, sprinkle the colorful sprinkles into the mix for an extra decorative touch and shake again to distribute them.
Spread the coated cereal mix on a parchment-lined baking sheet to cool and set for about 10 minutes.
Once set, transfer the Pink Powder Puff Chex Crunch to a serving bowl or store in an airtight container until ready to serve.
