Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups white chocolate chips
- 4 cups crispy rice cereal
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Prepare a large baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and set it aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the white chocolate chips and unsalted butter.
Microwave the mixture in 20-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the white chocolate chips are fully melted and smooth. Be careful not to overheat.
Stir the vanilla extract into the melted white chocolate mixture.
In a large mixing bowl, place the crispy rice cereal.
Pour the melted white chocolate mixture over the cereal and gently fold to coat all the cereal evenly.
Spread the coated cereal evenly onto the prepared baking sheet.
Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes, or until the white chocolate sets and hardens.
Once set, break the coated cereal into bite-sized clusters.
Place the clusters into a large resealable plastic bag, add the powdered sugar, and seal the bag.
Shake the bag vigorously to coat the clusters in powdered sugar completely.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
