Snow Drops..gifts from the kitchen

A very easy gift to make and a 'crowd pleaser' too. So easy to make that it can be done as a last minute gift! Years ago I got this recipe from a friend who called it Crispix Snacks but there is the same recipe on the Crispix cereal box called Snow Drops and that just sounded better to me. I changed up the recipe a little from the box.

Snow Drops

2 cups chocolate chips
1 cup peanut butter

Melt this in a saucepan on the stove or in a bowl in the microwave. Stir until melted and smooth.
Pour a box full (350 grams)of Crispix cereal in a large bowl and pour the chocolate and peanut butter mixture over the cereal stiring gently until all the cereal is coated.
Put 1 3/4 cups of icing sugar in a large paper bag and add the coated cereal. Keep the top of the bag closed and shake up the cereal until it is coated. Put on a large pan and place in a cool place to harden. Once cool it is ready to package or to have as snacks. It is a 'bit' addictive so beware if the bowl empties fast! Still...it is cereal and peanut butter and chocolate so it should be good for you!! ~smile~
