Ingredients

  • Chocolate Thin Mint Flavor:

  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • Green Pieces:
  • 4 cups Rice Chex cereal

Instructions

For the Chocolate Thin Mint Cereal pieces

  • Place cereal in a large gallon size bag and set aside. In a small microwave proof bowl, melt chocolate and stir until smooth.
  • Pour the melted chocolate over cereal in bag and gently stir with a spatula until coated, you can also shake the bag but I usually like to wait until my powdered sugar is added.
  • Add finely crushed cookies and powdered sugar and shake.
  • Pour covered cereal onto a cookie sheet and let cool.

For the Green Cereal Pieces

  • Repeat steps 1-4. This time using white chocolate and add green coloring, about 5 drops.
  • Once both flavors are done, mix the two together and add sprinkle more Thin Mints on top for decoration!

Notes

You may also add mint extract for more of a minty flavor!
