Instructions
Measure 9 cups of Rice Chex cereal into a large mixing bowl and set aside.
In a medium microwave-safe bowl, combine 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips, 1 cup of creamy peanut butter, and 1 tablespoon of butter.
Microwave the mixture on high for 1 minute, then stir until smooth. Microwave in additional 30-second increments if needed, stirring after each until completely melted and incorporated.
Stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract into the melted chocolate mixture.
Pour the chocolate mixture over the Rice Chex cereal in the large mixing bowl. Gently stir with a rubber spatula until all pieces are well coated.
Transfer the chocolate-coated Chex mixture into a large plastic bag or a container with a lid.
Add 1.5 cups of powdered sugar to the bag or container with the chocolate Chex. Seal the bag or container, and shake until the pieces are evenly coated with sugar.
Spread the coated Chex onto a baking sheet or large piece of parchment paper to cool and set.
Once cooled, transfer the Chocolate Chex Mix to a serving bowl or an airtight container for storage.
