COCOA CEREAL (CHEX) MIX
My attempt at imitating the new "cocoa Chex mix" they had out for the holidays. Very low in fat and quite low in calories if you use the lowest calorie chex. I also add in some cinnamon Crispix for a little extra flavor. Taste just like the packagedvariey with less fat and less cost!
