Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 small package strawberry jello powder
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • Sprinkles (optional)


Instructions

  1. Measure 6 cups of Chex cereal and place it in a large bowl.
  2. Melt 1 cup of white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, microwaving in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.
  3. Stir in softened cream cheese and the strawberry jello powder into the melted chocolate until creamy and well-combined.
  4. Pour the chocolate mixture over the Chex and gently stir until all the cereal is well-coated.

  7. Spread the puppy chow on a baking sheet to cool and set, then transfer it to a bowl to enjoy!
