Essential Ingredients- 1 cup (approx. 110g) White Chocolate
- 1.5 cups Crispy Cereal (choose your favorite kind)
- 1 Decorating Chocolate Pen (any color)
- A pinch of assorted Sprinkles
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Begin by melting the white chocolate in the microwave. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each, for a total of about 1 minute 30 seconds, or until smooth. Be careful not to overheat or burn the chocolate.
Step 2
Add the prepared cereal to the melted white chocolate. Gently fold the cereal into the chocolate using a spatula or spoon, ensuring each piece is evenly coated without breaking the cereal.
Step 3
On a baking sheet or plate lined with parchment paper, spoon the cereal mixture. Use the back of a spoon or a chopstick to shape them into bite-sized portions. You can form them into small mounds or create any shape you like.
Step 4
To make the decorating chocolate pen easier to use, place it in a cup of warm water for 1-2 minutes until it softens and becomes pliable.
Step 5
Once the chocolate pen is softened, drizzle it over the cereal bites in lines or decorative patterns. Sprinkle your assorted decorative sprinkles over the wet chocolate to add color and sparkle.
Step 6
Allow the cereal bites to set completely at room temperature or in the refrigerator until the chocolate is firm. Once hardened, they are ready to be enjoyed! Package them nicely in cellophane bags or small boxes for a lovely homemade gift.
