    In small microwaveable bowl, microwave white chocolate moulding wafers uncovered on Medium-High for 15 to 30 seconds. Stir. Continue in 15 to 30 second intervals, stirring each time until all the wafers are fully melted. The wafers will retain their shape until they are stirred. Drizzle over cereal mixture; refrigerate until set. Store in airtight container.

Expert Tips

  • Tip 1
    COOKING GLUTEN FREE? Always read labels to make sure each recipe ingredient is gluten free. Products and ingredient sources can change.
  • Tip 2
    For easy drizzling, spoon the melted white chocolate wafers into a small food-storage bag. Snip off one tiny bottom corner and squeeze over the cereal mixture.
  • Tip 3
    White chocolate moulding wafers are easily found at any bulk food store.
  • Tip 4
    Add more dazzle to the drizzle by using two kinds of melted chocolate, as shown in the photo.
  • Tip 5
    Instead of waxed paper, you can spray the cookie sheet with cooking spray or line with nonstick foil.
