This amazing snack is the perfect treat to share with a loved one on Valentine’s Day. It is a treat that will have them fall in love all over again.

It is a treat that can’t be beaten.
Key Ingredients You’ll Need
Cereal: You will need squared rice cereal or cereal of your choice. You will mix it with white almond bark to make it stick together.
Strawberry Cake Mix: I like to use a boxed mix for a faster prep time, but you can use a homemade recipe.
Valentines: You will need themed sprinkles and M&M’s for a pop of color.
How To Make Strawberry Puppy Chow
Step 1. Place the cereal in a large bowl. Melt the almond bark in a heat-safe bowl for 30-second increments until smooth. Pour on top of the cereal and combine gently until coated. Pour into a large Ziplock bag or 2-gallon bag.
Step 2. Sprinkle about half of the powdered sugar into one bag and the other half into a separate bag. Divide the cake mix into the two bags and add your desired about of sprinkles and M&M’s into each bag. Zip closed and shake until the cereal is coated completely, then serve. Enjoy!
