1 cup white chocolate chips
½ cup caramel bits
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
2 teaspoons apple pie spice
½ cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 cup dried apple chips, crushed

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt white chocolate chips and caramel bits in 20-30 second intervals, stirring until smooth. Stir in vanilla extract and a pinch of salt.
Pour melted mixture over Chex cereal and gently stir until evenly coated.
