Instructions

1. Prepare the Cereal: Begin by measuring out 9 cups of your favorite Chex cereal and placing it into a large mixing bowl. Set this aside for later.

2. Melt the Chocolate: In a small microwavable bowl, combine the white chocolate chips and margarine. Microwave the mixture uncovered on high for 1 minute. Stir well. If the mixture isn’t smooth yet, microwave for an additional 30 seconds and stir again until the chocolate and margarine are fully melted and smooth.

3. Add Vanilla: Stir in the vanilla extract to the melted chocolate and margarine mixture. This will add a wonderful aroma and flavor to your treat.

4. Coat the Cereal: Pour the melted chocolate mixture over the Chex cereal in the large bowl. Stir gently but thoroughly until all the cereal pieces are evenly coated with the delicious mixture.

5. Mix the Coating: In a large plastic food-storage bag, combine the powdered sugar and strawberry-flavored gelatin. Seal the bag and shake it to mix the two ingredients evenly.

6. Coat with Sugar Mix: Add the chocolate-coated cereal to the plastic bag with the powdered sugar and gelatin mixture. Seal the bag again and shake it vigorously until the cereal is well-coated with the pink, sugary goodness.

7. Cool and Store: Spread the coated cereal on waxed paper to cool. Once completely cooled, store the Pink Powder Puff Chex Crunch in an airtight container to keep it fresh and crunchy.
