Main Ingredients
- 4 and ½ cups (135g) Rice Chex® cereal
- ¼ cup (57g) unsalted butter, cut into 8 slices
- 8 ounces (227g) high quality white chocolate
- 1 teaspoon almond extract
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ⅔ cup (134g) sprinkles
- 1 cup (120g) powdered sugar
Instructions
- Prepare the Cereal: Pour the Rice Chex cereal into a large mixing bowl and set aside to get ready for coating.
- Melt the Coating: In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and white chocolate together, stirring constantly to ensure a smooth mixture. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in the almond and vanilla extracts.
- Coat the Cereal: Immediately pour the melted white chocolate mixture over the cereal. Stir gently but thoroughly to coat all the cereal pieces evenly.
- Add Sprinkles: Transfer the coated cereal into a large zip-top bag or a container with a tight-fitting lid. Add the sprinkles, seal, and shake gently to disperse them evenly throughout the coated cereal.
- Coat with Powdered Sugar: Add the powdered sugar into the bag or container, seal again, and shake until the cereal is fully coated with powdered sugar.
- Cool and Store: Spread the coated cereal mixture onto a baking sheet lined with foil or parchment paper, and let it cool completely to set. Once cooled, discard any excess powdered sugar and store the puppy chow in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
Notes
- Use high-quality white chocolate for the best flavor and smooth coating.
- Ensure to melt the butter and chocolate slowly over low heat to avoid burning.
- You can customize the sprinkles to match holiday themes or preferences.
- Shake gently but thoroughly to prevent breaking the cereal pieces.
- Store puppy chow in a cool, dry place to maintain freshness and crunch.
