Ingredients
  

"Creme" Component

  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 4 ounces cookies n' creme chocolate plus more for adding
  • 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
  • 2 cups rice chex cereal

"Chocolate Wafer" Component

  • 5 Oreos plus more for adding
  • 4 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
  • 2 cups chex cereal
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar

Instructions
 

For the "Creme" Component

  • Pour powdered sugar into a large plastic zip-top bag. Set aside.
  • Microwave the cookies n' creme chocolate in a medium microwave-safe bowl until melted and smooth. Stir in vegetable oil.
  • Pour cereal into melted chocolate and stir to coat. Dump chocolate-cereal mixture into bag of powdered sugar, seal, and shake until cereal is evenly coated.

For the "Chocolate Wafer" Component

  • In a food processor (or with a large zip-top bag and a rolling pin), crush the Oreos until broken into fine crumbs. Set aside.
  • Microwave the semi-sweet chocolate in a medium microwave-safe bowl until melted and smooth. Stir in vegetable oil.
  • Pour cereal into melted chocolate and stir to coat. Dump chocolate-cereal mixture into bag of crushed Oreos, seal, and shake until cereal is evenly coated.* Add in the powdered sugar, seal, and continue to shake until fully coated.
  • Combine both mixes together in a large bowl. If desired, break up a few Oreos as well as chunks of cookies n' creme chocolate to throw into the mix. Stir and enjoy!

Notes

*You'll notice that instead of just mixing the crushed Oreo with the powdered sugar and shaking, I decided to shake the cereal in the crushed Oreo alone first. I found that the Oreo stuck to the cereal better when shaken alone, so that you'd end up with fewer Oreo crumbs that didn't stick to the cereal.
*Makes about 6 cups.
