- 8 cups Rice Chex cereal
- 1 (12 oz) bag white chocolate chips roughly 2 cups

Add the Chex cereal into a large mixing bowl, then set aside for later.
In a microwave safe bowl, combine white chocolate chips, vegetable oil, and almond extract. Microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring in-between, until melted and smooth.
Pour the melted white chocolate into your bowl of Chex cereal, then mix to coat the cereal evenly. Sprinkle in the rainbow sprinkles and mix again to coat.
Add in the heat-treated cake mix and powdered sugar, then mix (or shake if you have a lid) to coat the cereal evenly.
