Oh Muddy Buddies, you are a taste sensation in my mouth. Oui Oui! Chocolate + Peanut Butter = a match made in heaven. In about 15 minutes flat, this easy-to-make munchie could be yours! (It was ours today!)
Start with 9 Cups of Chex Cereal. I used rice, but you can use corn or chocolate.Next up, in a microwave safe bowl, add 1/4 C butter, 1/2 C Peanut Butter & 1 C Semi-sweet choco chips. Melt for 1 minute & then stir. Melt for an additional 30 seconds. Add 1/4 tsp. vanilla.
Pour onto the cereal and mix until chocolate is evenly distributed on cereal (I used my hands- that seemed to work like a gem.)
Once it's all mixed, add it to a large ziploc bag & add the powdered sugar. Seal the bag & toss to coat.
Just like that:
Place in a bowl and add peanut m&m's. Mmmmm…delish!

You can thank me later.
On a completely unrealated note- you may or may not be interested in knowing that I ran into Adam Sandler at my local Target a few Saturdays ago. He was there with his wife & girls. I was in the kids clothing department and so was he. Isn't that a hoot?
I had another "celebrity" (if you can call it that) sighting at the dollar store on Wed. night. That one is funny. I'll share soon. Have a great weekend!
