Okay...so I bought a box of Rice Chex Cereal and as I was throwing the box away this recipe on the back caught my attention. I love lemon flavoring so I HAD to make it! DELICIOUS! My kids liked it too. With school coming up, what a GREAT and somewhat healthy after school snack. And in the words of Betsy herself.....this is "easy, easy, easy!"

| 1 1/4 | cups white vanilla baking chips |
