1/3 cup chocolate-hazelnut spread

1/3 cup creamy peanut butter

4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted

1 cup confectioners’ sugar, plus more for dusting

12 pretzel sticks

3 cups cinnamon or chocolate puffed cereal, such as Cinnamon Puffins

Directions

Mix the chocolate-hazelnut spread, peanut butter and melted butter in a medium bowl. Stir in the confectioners’ sugar until completely combined.
Form 1 heaping tablespoon of the peanut butter mixture into a cone around a pretzel stick and place on a serving platter. Press individual cereal pieces into the cone in upward-angled concentric circles, starting at the bottom and moving up and around the cone. Repeat with the remaining peanut butter mixture, pretzel sticks and cereal. Dust the cereal-covered cones with confectioners’ sugar. Refrigerate until the cones remove easily from the platter, about 30 minutes.
