Ingredients

Scale

Cereal Base

  • 6 cups Rice Chex cereal (or similar crunchy cereal)

Melted Mixture

  • 1 cup white chocolate chips or chunks
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Cinnamon Sugar Blend

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Prep Your Ingredients: Measure out the Rice Chex cereal, white chocolate chips, butter, cinnamon sugar blend, and vanilla extract. Prepare a large mixing bowl and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup and cooling.
  2. Melt Butter and White Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl or using a double boiler, gently melt the butter and white chocolate together until smooth and silky. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract to lock in flavor.
  3. Combine the Cereal and Melted Mixture: Pour the cereal into the mixing bowl, then drizzle the melted white chocolate and butter mixture evenly over the cereal. Gently fold everything together to coat each piece with a creamy glaze while maintaining the crunch.
  4. Coat with Cinnamon Sugar: Generously sprinkle the cinnamon sugar blend over the coated cereal. Toss or stir thoroughly to ensure every piece is evenly dusted and flavorful.
  5. Spread and Cool: Spread the mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet. Allow it to cool completely at room temperature or refrigerate for faster setting. Once firm, break into chunks or pieces ready to enjoy.

Notes

  • Use high-quality, fresh cinnamon for the best flavor without bitterness.
  • Melt white chocolate slowly to avoid burning or graininess.
  • Fold the cereal gently to keep it crunchy and prevent breaking pieces too much.
  • Store in an airtight container to maintain texture and freshness up to one week.
  • Adjust the sugar amount to suit your preferred sweetness level.
