Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 cups Rice Chex cereal
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups powdered sugar
Instructions
Place the Rice Chex cereal in a large mixing bowl and set aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips, peanut butter, and butter.
Microwave the mixture in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until the ingredients are completely melted and smooth (approximately 1–2 minutes).
Stir in the vanilla extract to the melted mixture.
Pour the chocolate mixture over the Rice Chex cereal and gently fold with a spatula until all pieces are evenly coated.
Transfer the coated cereal mixture into a large resealable plastic bag or a large mixing bowl with a lid.
Add the powdered sugar to the bag or bowl, seal tightly, and shake vigorously until the cereal pieces are fully coated in powdered sugar.
Spread the coated cereal onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to cool and set for about 15–20 minutes.
Once cooled, transfer to an airtight container for storage or serve immediately as a crunchy, sweet snack!
