Ingredients
  

The Mix
  • 6 cups Rice Chex or Corn Chex cereal
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • 0.25 cup unsalted butter
  • 2 tbsp lemon zest plus extra for garnish
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1.5 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries washed and thoroughly dried

Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Microwave-safe bowl
  • Gallon-size zip-top bag
  • Baking sheet

Method
 

  1. Place cereal in a large bowl.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt butter and white chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
  3. Stir lemon zest and lemon juice into the melted chocolate mixture.
  4. Pour mixture over cereal and gently toss to coat evenly.
  5. Transfer coated cereal to a large zip-top bag containing the powdered sugar. Seal and shake until well coated.
  6. Spread on a baking sheet to cool.
  7. Just before serving, gently toss with fresh blueberries and top with extra lemon zest.

Notes

Ensure fresh blueberries are completely dry before adding to prevent the sugar from dissolving. Store leftovers with fresh fruit in the fridge.
