Ingredients
Method
- Divide the Rice Chex cereal evenly among 3 large bowls, about 1 cup in each bowl.
- Place the milk or semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 20–30 second bursts, stirring between each, until melted and smooth.
- Pour the melted chocolate over the first bowl of cereal. Gently fold with a spatula until all cereal pieces are evenly coated.
- Transfer the coated cereal to a large zip-top bag, add 1/2 cup powdered sugar, seal, and shake until all pieces are well coated and no sticky spots remain. Spread on a baking sheet to cool.
- In a clean microwave-safe bowl, add 4 oz white chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon butter. Microwave in short bursts, stirring between each, until melted and smooth.
- Stir in the vanilla bean paste until evenly distributed, then pour over the second bowl of cereal. Fold gently to coat all pieces.
- Place this vanilla-coated cereal in a clean zip-top bag, add 1/2 cup powdered sugar, seal, and shake until fully coated. Spread on the baking sheet to cool.
- In another microwave-safe bowl, combine the remaining 4 oz white chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon butter. Microwave in short bursts, stirring until smooth.
- Quickly whisk in the strawberry agar-agar powder until the mixture is smooth and evenly pink, then pour over the third bowl of cereal. Fold gently to coat all pieces.
- Transfer the strawberry-coated cereal to a clean zip-top bag, add the remaining 1/2 cup powdered sugar, seal, and shake until fully coated. Spread on the baking sheet to cool completely.
- When all 3 flavors are completely cool and dry, gently combine the chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry cereal clusters in a large serving bowl and serve.
Notes
- Use short microwave bursts and stir frequently so the chocolate does not scorch.
- Let each flavored batch cool fully before mixing so the colors and coatings stay distinct.
