Instructions

Grind the freeze dried strawberries with coffee grinder, blender, or simply just smash them inside of Ziplock bag.

Put the strawberry shortcake crunch in another ziplock bag.
Put the white candy melts in a microwave safe bowl and melt them in 30 second intervals, stirring in between until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
Pour 10 ounces of the Chex mix into the bowl of melted chocolate, mix it up with a spatula and make sure all the Chex mix is completely covered.
Scoop out half the chocolate covered Chex mix, place it in the bag with the strawberry shortcake crunch crumbles and place the other half of the Chex mix in the strawberry powdered sugar mixture.
Make sure the ziplock bag is closed completely and then shake it to make sure all the Chex mix gets covered.
Repeat this step for the bag with the strawberry shortcake crunch mixture.
Pour both strawberry Chex mixes on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper to dry.
Add your uncovered Chex mix, in with the covered mix.
Next sprinkle the valentine sprinkles and candy coated chocolates all over the strawberry shortcake Chex mix.
Let the mix dry and then put the Strawberry Chex mix blend on a dish to serve and enjoy!
