Muddy Buddies

Muddy Buddies

INGREDIENTS

9 cups rice chex cereal

1/2 cup creamy peanut butter

1 cup milk or semisweet chocolate chips (I like Guittard or Ghirardelli)

4 tablespoons unsalted butter

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt

1 and 1/2 cups powdered sugar

Measure: the cereal (rice OR corn chex) into a very large bowl

Melt: the butter, chocolate chips, and peanut butter and mix together. Add in the vanilla and a pinch of salt (to balance the sweetness)

Combine: add the chocolate-peanut butter mixture to the cereal mixture and toss until combined

Coat: transfer the mixture to a large bag, add the powdered sugar, and shake to combine!
