EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

For easy melting and drizzling, place chocolate chips in microwavable small resealable plastic food-storage bag; seal. Microwave on High 1 minute to 1 minute 30 seconds or until chips appear slightly melted; squeeze bag until chips are completely melted. Force chocolate into corner of bag, and use scissors to snip off a tiny corner. Squeeze bag to drizzle chocolate.

Pretzel lovers can mix in 1 cup broken pretzel sticks with the cereals.

I made this recipe (with pretzels and popcorn) for my kids'' teachers for Valentine''s Day. It got RAVE reviews and multiple requests for the recipe. My only complaint is how fast it disappeared....make a double batch if sharing with more than 1 person!

I tried this for Christmas ... Family & Co-workers loved it! I added crushed peanuts & mini M&M''s & not as much drizzle to the 2nd batch.
