Ingredients
1 cup Semi Sweet Chips or Chunks
1 Cup Milk Chocolate Chips
9 cups Rice Chex Cereal
1 box Devil's Food Cake Mix*

Instructions
Divide the Rice Chex Cereal into equal portions, putting one half in a large mixing bowl and setting aside the other half in a smaller bowl.
Set your microwave to "Half Power" and microwave the semi-sweet chocolate chips, stopping every 15 seconds and stirring each time till the chocolate is melted and smooth.
Pour over the Rice Chex cereal in the mixing bowl and gently fold till the semi-sweet chocolate covers the cereal. Pour the coated cereal into a gallon sized freezer bag and set aside.
Pour the set-aside portion of Rice Chex cereal into the mixing bowl.
Set your microwave to "Half Power" and microwave the milk chocolate chips, stopping every 15 seconds and stirring each time till the chocolate is melted and smooth.
Pour the melted milk chocolate over the remaining cereal and fold to coat the cereal. Add the milk chocolate cereal to the semi-sweet chocolate cereal in the freezer bag.
Gently add the dry Devil's Food Cake Mix, and (if desired) add the crushed candy canes. COMPLETELY seal the zippered freezer bag and shake till the cereal is fully coated with the cake mix.
Pour out onto parchment paper to set -- discard remaining powder. Serve immediately or store mix in airtight container.
