Here is one of my favorite Gluten Free /Dairy Free Valentine Treats…

It is super easy to make…

Melt Your favorite Chocolate over a double boiler or in the microwave (I used Enjoy Life Dairy free chocolate chips) … Then pour the melted chocolate over a big mixing bowl full of your favorite cereal.

I used cinnamon chex cereal (Its gluten free. Corn flakes, or any other cereal will work too.)

Then spoon the chocolate covered cereal into a cupcake wrapper. Sprinkle with sprinkles or candy hearts and refrigerate.

Enjoy!!!
