Ingredients

  • 9 cups Rice Chex cereal
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • 10 ounces Andes Chocolate Mints unwrapped
  • 1/4 cup butter melted
  • teaspoons vanilla extract
  • cups powdered sugar

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl, add the Chex cereal and set aside.
  • In a microwavable bowl, combine the chocolate chips, Andes Mints, and butter. Microwave on high for about 45 seconds and stir. Heat again for 30 seconds and stir until all of the chocolate chips are melted and the mixture is creamy.
  • Drizzle the chocolate mixture over the cereal and stir gently until all the cereal is coated.
  • Add half of the cereal mixture to a gallon freezer bag. Add half of the powdered sugar, seal, and gently shake until the cereal is coated. Repeat with the remaining cereal mixture.
  • Spread onto a parchment-lined baking sheet to cool in a dark, dry place.
  • Serve in a large serving bowl, or individual serving cups. Store in an airtight container in a cool place for 3-5 days. Enjoy!

Notes

Storing instructions: store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for up to 3-5 days at room temperature, up to 2 weeks in the fridge, and up to 2 months in the freezer.
