Cookware Tip

Spreading cereal mixture over paper towels will help absorb moisture, avoiding a soggy mix. Placing the paper towels over a cooling rack allows for air circulation and faster cooling time. Store cooled cereal mix in large airtight containers, or in resealable plastic storage bags.

 

Cookware Tip

Choose a wide-rimmed, microwave-safe bowl to prepare this mixture to allow for easy stirring.
