Birthday Chex

My birthday was a couple of days ago and I wanted to make something I could share at work. Instead of bringing the usual cake or cupcakes in, I wanted to make something original but still cake flavored. Looking through my pins on Pinterest, I found a recipe for what I call "Birthday Chex". It is delicious and easier than the usual puppy chow.

You will need:
8 C Chex cereal (rice or corn)
1 package white almond bark
1/2 - 1 T vegetable oil (for thinning)
1 1/2 C white funfetti cake mix
1/2 C powdered sugar




For starters, measure out the Chex cereal into a paper bag (or large bowl) big enough so that there is a little wiggle room for when you shake it. Combine the dry cake mix and powdered sugar in a bowl and set aside. Then, melt the almond bark and vegetable oil over low heat until melted through. Use your discretion on how much vegetable oil to use, it is to thin out the almond bark so try a little at a time until you get the right consistency!

Pour the almond bark mixture over the cereal and shake bag or bowl with lid until the cereal is covered. Pour the cake mix and powdered sugar mix over cereal and give another good shake until the cereal is coated. Enjoy!
