Ingredients
  

The Mix
  • 9 cups Rice Chex cereal
  • 1.5 cups white chocolate chips high quality
  • 0.25 cup unsalted butter
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice freshly squeezed
  • 1 tbsp lemon zest plus more for garnish
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
The Coating
  • 1.5 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 cup freeze-dried blueberries pulverized into powder
  • 0.5 cup fresh blueberries for garnish only

Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Microwave-safe bowl
  • Baking sheet
  • Food processor or Ziploc bag

Method
 

  1. Place freeze-dried blueberries in a food processor and pulse until fine powder. Mix with powdered sugar in a small bowl.
  2. Measure Chex cereal into a very large bowl.
  3. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine white chocolate chips and butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth.
  4. Stir lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract into the melted chocolate mixture.
  5. Pour chocolate mixture over cereal and gently fold until evenly coated.
  6. Transfer coated cereal to a large ziplock bag or pour sugar mixture over the bowl. Shake or toss until cereal is coated in the blueberry sugar dust.
  7. Spread onto a baking sheet to cool and set for 15 minutes.
  8. Serve garnished with fresh blueberries and extra lemon zest.

Notes

Do not add fresh blueberries into the storage bag as they will make the cereal soggy. Add them only when serving.
