Valentine Chex Mix

While making red velvet cookies over the weekend I decided it was time to find a sweet valentines treat for myself (like I could use the extra calories). Betty Crocker website has some great gluten free chex mix recipes. And this one was one I had to try. So I did. And it was beyond delicious. A different take on the "puppy chow"...And easy.

9 cups Rice Chex® cereal (gluten free)
1 cup white almond bark
1/2 cup peanut butter 
3/4 cup powdered sugar
/21 cup red, white and pink candy-coated chocolate candies
1/4 cup red or pink jimmies sprinkles

• In large bowl, place cereal. In small microwavable bowl, microwave almond bark and peanut butter uncovered on High 1 minute to 1 minute 30 seconds, stirring every 30 seconds, until melted and smooth. Pour peanut butter mixture over cereal, stirring until evenly coated.
• Place 1/2 of the cereal mixture in 1-gallon food-storage plastic bag. Add powdered sugar. Seal bag; shake until well coated. Spread on waxed paper or foil to cool, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, stir candies and sprinkles into remaining cereal mixture. Spread on waxed paper or foil to cool, about 15 minutes.
• In serving bowl, mix both cereal mixtures. Store in airtight container.
