Ingredients:
3/4 c creamy peanut butter
1 1/2 c semisweet chocolate chips
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 c powdered sugar
8 c Chex cereal (rice Chex, corn Chex, or a combination)
4 tbsp salted butter, or add a pinch of salt if using unsalted butter
Directions:
The first step is to measure the cereals using a large mixing bowl. Put them aside.
Split the powdered sugar and put them into two large resealable bags separately.
Place a saucepan on the stove and turn the heat to medium-low. Add peanut butter, salt, chocolate chips, and butter. Stir and cook for a few minutes until they are all melted and blended.
Remove the pan from the stove, then add the vanilla extract and stir until well blended.
Transfer the mixture into the bowl with cereals, then toss until completely coated. Let them rest for a few minutes at room temperature.
Fill each prepared bag with the coated cereals. Seal and shake the bag until the pecans are coated with the sugar mixture.
Serve and enjoy!
Notes:
Place any leftovers in an airtight container, then put them at room temperature. They can last up to a week to 2 months in the freezer.
Feel free to use a container with a cover to mix the pecans.
