🍋 Lemonade Puppy Chow 🍋

This Lemonade Puppy Chow is a sweet, tangy twist on the classic snack, with a refreshing lemony flavor in every crunchy bite. Coated in white chocolate and powdered sugar, and kicked up with a dash of lemonade powder, this snack is the perfect balance of sweetness and citrus.

Ingredients:

• 9 cups Chex cereal (rice or corn variety works best)
• 1 1/4 cups white chocolate chips
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter
• 4 tablespoons lemon juice (freshly squeezed preferred)
• 2 teaspoons lemon zest
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 cups powdered sugar
• 1/4 cup lemonade powder (for an extra lemony kick)

Directions:

1. Prepare the Cereal:
   Place the Chex cereal in a large bowl and set aside.
2. Make the Lemon White Chocolate Coating:
   In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the white chocolate chips, butter, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the mixture is smooth and fully melted.
3. Coat the Cereal:
   Pour the melted white chocolate mixture over the Chex cereal. Gently stir to coat the cereal evenly.
4. Add the Powdered Sugar Mixture:
   In a large zip-top bag, combine the powdered sugar and lemonade powder. Add the coated cereal to the bag, seal it, and shake well until each piece is fully covered in the powdered sugar mixture.
5. Cool and Store:
   Spread the coated cereal out on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to cool. Once cooled, store in an airtight container.
