Description

Honey-flavored Rice Chex cereal mixed with dry roasted pistachios and coated with Nutella, butter and sea salt for that sweet and salty flavor we all love. A classic treat that everyone can enjoy!

Ingredients

  • ½ cups Unsalted Butter
  • 1-¼ cup Nutella
  • ¾ teaspoons Sea Salt
  • 1 cup Shelled Pistachios (dry Roasted And Salted)
  • 8 cups Honey Nut Corn Chex Cereal (a 13.8 Oz Box Is Roughly 8 Cups)
  • 2-½ cups Powdered Sugar

Preparation

In a medium-sized saucepan over medium-low heat, melt the butter and Nutella. Stir constantly until smooth and no clumps remain. Remove from heat and stir in salt.

Pour the pistachios and cereal into a large bowl. Pour the warm Nutella mixture just around the outside of the bowl and gently fold until each piece of cereal is coated. Pouring the Nutella around the outside of the bowl will prevent the Nutella from clumping together in big globs, and instead evenly coat the cereal and pistachios.

Add the powdered sugar to the bowl and toss to coat. Add more or less powdered sugar depending on your preference.

Pour onto a large baking sheet and let it sit for about 15 minutes so that chocolate and the powdered sugar have time to set. Enjoy!

Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.

Oh my Gosh I can’t keep this stuff long enough to grab a bite myself. I think I’ll make some by the light of the moon tonight and hide it just for me.

I really enjoyed this, but felt like it was a little too much sugar and made a little too much of it. It was nice to munch on in small quantities, but even though I brought it to a large party I ended up leaving with a lot left over. Will try cutting back on sugar and halving the recipe next time.
