Deirdre's Recipe (the correct way)
Ingredients- 7 c rice Chex
- 1 c semisweet chocolate chips
- ½ c peanut butter (chunky is better but either works)
- 1 stick (½ c) butter
- 2 c powdered sugar (or as much as needed)
Directions
- Melt chocolate chips, peanut butter, and butter and mix until smooth.
- Pour over Chex (in a paper bag or a large bowl). Stir to coat.
- Add powdered sugar and mix/shake until perfectly coated and beautiful.
Note: The smaller box of Chex is about 10 cups total, so I like to do 1.5x the original recipe and use the entire box.
Edit: so after some experimentation I have determined that the Family Size box of Chex is something like 16c of cereal. Which means it breaks down nicely into two batches, if you're a little generous with your measurements. I've also determined that with my particular set of bowls, it's easier to mix/shake a 7c batch than a 10c one. IN CASE ANYONE WAS WONDERING.
