Ingredients
9 cups Rice Chex cereal
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 ½ cups chocolate chips
1 ¾ cups powdered sugar
1 cup mini Reese’s peanut butter cups
⅔ cup peanut butter baking bits
¼ cup candy-coated peanuts or peanut butter candies
Instructions
1. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips and peanut butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth.
2. Place Chex cereal in a large mixing bowl. Pour the melted mixture over the cereal and gently fold to coat evenly.
3. Transfer the coated cereal into a large zip-top bag. Add powdered sugar, seal the bag, and shake until well coated.
4. Spread the mix onto a parchment-lined baking sheet to cool slightly.
5. Sprinkle mini Reese’s, peanut butter bits, and candy-coated peanuts over the mix.
6. Drizzle with additional melted peanut butter chips if desired.
7. Let the mix cool and set completely before serving or packaging.
Notes
Use a large mixing bowl so cereal doesn’t break while stirring.
Let everything cool completely before storing to keep it crisp.
