Description

 

This delightful twist on the classic snack mix combines the tangy sweetness of cherry with the rich creaminess of cheesecake, all enveloped in a crunchy cereal coating. It’s an easy, no-bake treat perfect for parties, movie nights, or whenever you’re craving something sweet and satisfying.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 8 cups rice square cereal (such as Rice Chex)
  • 1 (3.4-ounce) box instant cheesecake pudding mix
  • 1 (3-ounce) box cherry-flavored gelatin mix
  • 1 cup plus 3 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 pound vanilla-flavored almond bark
  • Optional: red and pink sprinkles for decoration

Instructions

  • Prepare the Coating Mixture:
    • In a large zip-top bag, combine the instant cheesecake pudding mix, cherry-flavored gelatin mix, powdered sugar, and optional sprinkles.
    • Seal the bag and shake well to mix the ingredients thoroughly. Set aside.
  • Melt the Almond Bark:
    • Keep the almond bark in the tray it comes in and place it in the microwave.
    • Microwave on high for 1 minute; stir and heat for an additional minute until fully melted and smooth.
  • Coat the Cereal:
    • Place the rice cereal squares in a large mixing bowl.
    • Pour the melted almond bark over the cereal.
    • Gently stir with a rubber spatula until all the cereal pieces are evenly coated.
  • Combine with Coating Mixture:
    • Transfer the coated cereal into the prepared zip-top bag containing the sugar mixture.
    • Seal the bag and shake vigorously until all the cereal pieces are well coated with the mixture.
  • Set and Serve:
    • Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
    • Spread the coated cereal mixture onto the baking sheet in an even layer.
    • Allow it to set and cool completely.
    • Once set, break into bite-sized pieces and serve.

Notes

 

  • Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
  • Variations: For added texture and flavor, consider mixing in pretzels, nuts, or dried cherries after coating the cereal.
  • Melting Tips: If you prefer, you can melt the almond bark using a double boiler instead of the microwave to prevent overheating.
