How to make Easy Strawberry Lemonade Chex Mix

1.    Measure out Chex cereal into a large bowl. Note: if you’re using the flavored Candy Melts, you’ll use 4 cups of cereal. If you’re using the white chocolate chips + pudding mix, you’ll use 6 cups of cereal.

2.    Pour each chocolate into a small glass dish. Add 1/2 tsp shortening or coconut oil, if desired, to help the chocolate coat the cereal easier. Microwave for 1 minute 20 seconds. Let sit in the microwave for 3 minutes. Remove and gently stir. If chocolate loves its shape and looks smooth, it’s done. If not, return to the microwave in 15 second increments, letting it sit for 2-3 minutes each time, until melted and smooth. Proceed with step 4.

3.    If you used White Chocolate Chips + Pudding Mix: You’ll need to melt each bag of white chocolate chips in separate bowls. Once melted, add 4 TBSP of the pudding mix into the white chocolate and stir gently until smooth. Repeat with remaining flavor. Add 2 drops of food coloring, if desired.

4.    Pour the chocolate mixture over the Chex cereal and stir gently to coat.

5.    Transfer cereal mixture to a large piece of wax or parchment paper. Let cool to set. Break pieces and combine flavors. Store in an airtight container to save. Candy can be made up to 3-4 days ahead, if desired. It saves well!
