Lemon Chex Buddies (chex.com)

Here is a football snack the kiddos can enjoy eating as much as they might enjoy helping mom or dad in the kitchen making it. It's quick and easy! The girls scouts use to make a cookie that was my absolute favorite, The Lemon Cooler, the year they discontinued them my palate wept. I needed a replacement and thus the Lemon Chex Buddies.

9	cups Rice Chex® cereal
1 1/4	cups white vanilla baking chips
1/4	cup butter or margarine
4	teaspoons grated lemon peel
2	tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2	cups powdered sugar

1.	Into large bowl, measure cereal; set aside.
2.	In 1-quart microwavable bowl, microwave chips, butter, lemon peel and juice uncovered on High 1 minute; stir. Microwave about 30 seconds longer or until mixture can be stirred smooth. Pour mixture over cereal, stirring until evenly coated. Pour into 2-gallon resealable food-storage plastic bag.
3.	Add powdered sugar. Seal bag; gently shake until well coated. Spread on waxed paper or foil to cool. Store in airtight container.
