Preparation

Step 1

In a small bowl add powder sugar, brown sugar, white granulated sugar and cinnamon, set aside.

Add chocolate chips & 4 tablespoons of butter into a small bowl and melt together by heating in the microwave in 30 second intervals stiring in between. Takes from 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Stir until completely melted and smooth.

NOTE - depedning on the chocolate and/or your microwave the chocolate may be a little chunky and not smooth from cooking to long or too high of heat or the chocolate. Don't worry! After a minute of heating stir in an additional tablespoon of butter melted (make sure this tablespoon is melted) and stir well into the chocolate. Use an additional tablespoon if needed.

Add cereal into a large bowl, set aside.

Pour chocolate over cereal and stir until cereal is completely coated. Once coated pour sugar mixture on top and mixture together to coat the chocolate covered cereal.

Once completely covered add an additional teaspoon of cinnamon on top of cereal and stir together one more time.

Serve immediately or store in the Ziplock bag for later. We love to keep ours stored in the fridge but on the counter works too!
