Prepare the cereal by placing Chex cereal in a large bowl and set aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine white chocolate chips and butter. Microwave for 30 seconds, stir, and continue microwaving in 15-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
Add cherry gelatin mix to the melted chocolate mixture and stir until fully combined.
Pour the cherry-chocolate mixture over the cereal, gently folding until evenly coated.
In a large zip-top bag, mix the powdered sugar and cheesecake pudding mix. Add the coated cereal, seal the bag, and shake until each piece is well covered.
Spread the coated cereal onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to cool.
Once cooled, stir in chopped dried cherries.

Work quickly when coating the cereal; store in an airtight container for up to five days at room temperature or two weeks in the fridge.
