Ingredients Needed:

Crispy rice or corn cereal
Chocolate chips
Butter
Peanut butter
Powdered sugar
Mix-ins

Cereal: AKA “Chex” cereal or a brand equivalent. To get the best taste, the rice or corn flavors work best.

Mix-Ins: You add the amount & the sweets. A few ideas:

M & M’s – -any flavor or size
Reese’s Pieces
Chocolate covered pretzels
Peanut butter cups
Flavored baking chips
Chopped up candy bars
Mixed nuts

How to Make:

First, measure out the dry cereal. Set aside.
Next, melt the chocolate chips, peanut butter and butter until smooth.
Pour that mixture on top of the dry cereal. Gently mix it to coat.
Fill a large plastic storage bag with powdered sugar. Start off with 1 1/2 cups.
Transfer the coated cereal into the storage bag and seal it up.
Shake it up and make sure all that chocolate coated cereal is covered in powdered sugar.
If you need additional powdered sugar, use that extra 1/2 cup. But, do it gradually.
Once it’s done, pour it into a large bowl and stir in any add ins you may like.

Storage: Keep any leftovers in a covered container. No need to refrigerate, unless it’s very hot/humid in your area.
