Cake Batter Buddies please

 On my refrigerator I have a dry erase board where I jot down things I need at the store...a running list of sorts. Yesterday when I glanced at it I noticed a new addition......
Unfortunately for me you can't buy cake batter chex mix at the store, but fortunately for Riggs I thought it was so cute that I made it for him anyway. It'a a new Pinterest favorite at the Hardy house..it may be borderline an addiction.  

Chex Funfetti Cake Batter Buddies
Adapted from: So Very Blessed

Ingredients:
5 cups Chex cereal (I used Rice Chex, but Corn Chex would work great!)
10 oz (5 squares) vanilla flavored Almond Bark
1 1/2 cups Funfetti cake mix (any kind of cake mix would work)
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 tsp vegetable shortening

Directions:
1. Melt Almond Bark according to the package directions, adding vegetable shortening to thin (I heard that you can make it without the shortening, but it worked great for me to use it).
2. Pour the cereal into a large bowl and drizzle the melted Almond Bark over the cereal. Mix gently with a large spoon or spatula.
3. Dump the cake mix and powdered sugar onto the cereal and mix gently with large spoon until all the cereal is evenly coated.
4. Enjoy!! It's so good! :)
