Total: 15 minutes minutes
Ingredients
- 14 cups Chex cereal
- 18 ounces holiday M&M candies
- 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate bar or chips
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4-5 cups powdered sugar
Instructions
Melt the peanut butter and butter in a microwave-safe dish in 30-second intervals. Add the chocolate gradually, microwaving once more if needed, then stir in the vanilla until smooth.
Put half of the cereal in a large bowl. Drizzle over half of the chocolate mixture and stir gently to coat.
Place two large paper bags together. Add 1/2 cup powdered sugar and half of the coated cereal, close the bags, and shake vigorously. Add more powdered sugar 1/2 cup at a time until coated, then toss in one-quarter of the M&Ms and transfer to an airtight container.
Repeat with the remaining cereal, chocolate mixture, powdered sugar, and M&Ms. Store in an airtight container.
