Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups rice cereal squares
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup strawberry cake mix (dry)
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • Optional: freeze-dried strawberries, crushed

Instructions

  1. Place cereal in a large mixing bowl.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt white chocolate chips and butter in 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
  3. Stir in vanilla extract.
  4. Pour melted mixture over cereal and gently toss until evenly coated.

Notes
