Equipment
- Large Baking Sheet
- parchment paper
- microwave-safe bowl
- rubber spatula
- measuring cup
Ingredients
- 9 cups rice cereal sqaures
- 12 ounces white almond bark melted
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 3 ounces strawberry gelatin pouch
- 1 ounce freeze dried strawberries
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a reusable silicone mat. This prevents sticking and makes cleanup a breeze.
- In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt the white confectionery coating in 30-second intervals. Stir well between each heat cycle until the liquid is completely smooth.
- Add the cereal to the parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Drizzle the melted mixture over the cereal and use a large spatula to fold everything together. Work gently so you don't crush the cereal, but make sure every piece is fully "wet" and coated.
- While the coating is still tacky, sprinkle the dry gelatin powder, and powdered sugar over the cereal. Toss again until the mixture transforms into a beautiful, even pink.
- Gently fold in the mini marshmallows, white chocolate chips, and freeze-dried strawberries.
- Allow the mixture to harden for about 15 minutes before enjoying.
- Store leftovers in airtight containers or bags for up to one week.
