Ingredients

6-7 C. Rice Chex Cereal
2 C. chocolate melts or 2 C. chocolate chips plus 1 1/2 Tbsp. vegetable oil
1 1/2 C. shredded coconut chopped
Sliced almonds for decoration

Instructions

1. Place cereal in a large bowl.
2. Place chocolate melts (or chocolate chips and oil) in a microwave proof bowl and heat until melted. Stir until smooth.
3. Pour melted chocolate over cereal and gently stir until coated.
4. Dump into a large plastic bag with coconut. (I like to chop the coconut up extra because the smaller pieces stick better.) Shake bake until cereal is covered in coconut.
5. Pour out onto a cookie sheet to let cool. Serve with sliced almonds.

I love my cute little colored bowls 🙂
