  3. Add Paleo cereal to a large mixing bowl. Pour melted chocolate mixture over cereal.

Notes

  • My favorite Paleo cereal is Lovebird Cereal.  Code LOVEBIRDADDISON will save you 10%!
  • Melt chocolate mixture until smooth and creamy.
  • Gently toss cereal with chocolate mixture.  In addition, gently toss when powdered maple sugar is added.
  • Powdered maple sugar is slightly off white in color.  Feel free to use organic powdered sugar for a crisp white color.
  • Do NOT serve to dogs.
