This was my outcome when I was all finished.
The recipe came out really good, the Chex had a strawberry hint from the gelatin.
Next time I make this, I will most likely use two cups of powdered sugar and 1 1/2 boxed of gelatin to make them lighter and pinker.
My class was pleasantly surprised with a valentines day treat.
