Strawberry Valentines Chex Mix
Ingredients
- 4-6 cups Rice Chex cereal
- 1 8- oz bag Strawberry Candy Melts OR
- 1 bag of white chocolate baking chips {12 oz} AND
- 1 box of Strawberry Creme Jell-O Pudding** {pudding NOT gelatin!}
- Valentines M&M’s and/or Sprinkles
Instructions
- Measure out Chex cereal into a large bowl. Note: if you’re using the Strawberry Candy Melts, you’ll use 4 cups of cereal. If you’re using the white chocolate chips + pudding mix, you’ll use 6 cups of cereal.
- Pour chocolate into a small glass dish. Add 1/2 tsp shortening, if desired, to help the chocolate coat the cereal easier. Microwave for 1 minute 20 seconds. Let sit in the microwave for 3 minutes. Remove and gently stir. If chocolate loves its shape and looks smooth, it’s done. If not, return to the microwave in 15 second increments, letting it sit for 2-3 minutes each time, until melted and smooth.
- If you used White Chocolate Chips + Pudding Mix: Add 4 TBSP of the strawberry creme pudding into the white chocolate and stir gently until smooth. Add 2 drops of red food coloring, if desired.
- Pour the chocolate mixture over the Chex cereal and stir gently to coat.
- Transfer cereal mixture to a large piece of wax paper. Sprinkle with M&M’s and Valentines sprinkles, if desired. Let cool to set. Break pieces and store in an airtight container to save. Candy can be made up to 3-4 days ahead, if desired. It saves well!

I found these boxes of Royal Instant Greek Yogurt Pudding at my local Kroger grocery store. They had several flavors- even grape for a purple fudge if you’d like! Use chocolate or butterscotch and mix in chopped nuts. I think it’d be good to use a banana flavored pudding and top with mini chocolate chips! For this fudge though, I was catering to a bunch of 7-year-old girls, so I opted for cherry pudding and added coloring to make it PINK. My daughter thought it was the best treat EVER!

Oh my goodness. Where do I start? I wanted to make something very easy for our church coffee hour but I have no idea where to start. I haven’t looked at the recipes yet but so many of them look so GREAT. I am having such a problem narrowing it down. I need to make 25 but some may be a little timely so I will have to go and check out the recipes now. Thank you so much for all the great ideas.
