Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    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.
  • tip 2
    Pretzel lovers can mix in 1 cup broken pretzel sticks with the cereals.
