Minty Chocolate Snack Mix (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
01 -
Half a cup of powdered sugar.
02 -
One and a half cups of chopped-up peppermint bark.
03 -
Four cups of Chex cereal (rice variety).
# Instructions:
01 -
Toss the confectioners' sugar into a gallon-sized zip bag and leave it to the side. This'll make the coating part a breeze.
02 -
Put the rice Chex cereal into a large bowl so it's ready for the dreamy peppermint chocolate topping.
03 -
In a microwave-safe dish, add the chopped peppermint bark. Microwave it for 30 seconds, then stir. Keep microwaving in 25-second bursts, stirring every time, until it's smooth and fully melted.
04 -
Carefully drizzle the melted bark on the cereal. Gently mix until the cereal is smoothly coated, being careful not to crush any pieces.
05 -
Pop the coated cereal into the prepared zip bag with sugar. Close it tight and shake around until the pieces are dusted evenly.
06 -
Spread the sugar-covered cereal onto wax paper or a cookie tray. Let it sit until the coating hardens before you enjoy or store it.
