How To Make White Chocolate Churro Crunch

Preheat and prepare. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Coat the cereal. Place 4 cups of Honeycomb cereal in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle 4 tablespoons of melted butter over the cereal and stir gently to coat the pieces evenly.

Add cinnamon sugar. Stir in 1/4 cup granulated sugar and 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon until the cereal is evenly coated.

Bake briefly. Spread the coated cereal onto the prepared baking sheet in an even layer. Bake for about 15 minutes, watching so the cereal doesn’t over-brown. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly on the sheet.

Finish with white chocolate. Drizzle about 1/2 cup melted white chocolate over the baked cereal and allow it to set. Once the chocolate hardens, transfer the mix to a serving bowl and enjoy.

Recipe Tips For Success

  • Use fresh cereal. Fresh, crisp cereal gives the best texture.
  • Line the pan. Parchment paper makes cleanup easier and allows you to lift the snack mix off the sheet when the chocolate has set.
  • Melt chocolate carefully. Melt white chocolate in small batches and use low power if microwaving to avoid seizing.

How To Serve

Serve this White Chocolate Churro Crunch in a bowl as a party snack, or portion it into small bags for gifting. Its crunchy texture and cinnamon-sugar flavor make it a crowd-pleaser.

Leftovers

Store any leftovers loosely covered at room temperature. This mix is best enjoyed the day you make it for maximum crunch, but it will keep for a couple of days if stored away from moisture.
