1 ½ cup semisweet chocolate chips
¾ cup creamy peanut butter ((see FAQ above for substitute notes))
6 Tablespoons salted butter (cut into 6 pieces)
½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps

1
Measure cereal into a large bowl and set aside.
2
In a separate, medium-sized, microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips, peanut butter, and butter.
3
Transfer to the microwave and heat for 30-second intervals, stirring well between, until chocolate is completely melted and mixture is smooth.
4
Stir in vanilla extract.
5
Pour chocolate mixture over your cereal and use a spatula to gently stir (you don't want to crush your cereal pieces!) until all cereal is coated in chocolate.
6
Once all cereal is well-coated, add powdered sugar to the bowl and use a spatula to stir until all cereal is coated with powdered sugar. Add more sugar as needed. Enjoy!
