Valentines Day KIT KAT Muddy Buddies!

Ingredients

  • 9 cups Rice Chex cereal
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup smooth peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup butter 1/2 stick - room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
  • Red and White M&M's
  • Hershey Kit Kat bars broken into smaller pieces
  • Red sugar crystals

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl, add the rice Chex cereal and set aside.
  • In a medium sized microwave bowl, add the chocolate chips, peanut butter and butter. Microwave for 1 minute and stir.
  • Microwave for an additional 30 seconds to ensure the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  • Add the vanilla and stir to incorporate.
  • Pour mixture over the cereal and stir or mix with hands to evenly coat. (It gets rather sticky so it helps to spray your hands with Pam spray).
  • Transfer the cereal into a large Ziploc bag (one gallon or larger).
  • Add the powdered sugar to the cereal mixture. Seal the bag and gently shake until all of the cereal pieces are evenly coated with the powdered sugar.
  • Line a baking sheet with wax paper.
  • Carefully, pour out the cereal onto the baking sheet and spread out to cool.
  • Once cooled, transfer the mixture to a serving bowl.
  • Add the red and white M&M's, red sugar crystals and Kit Kat pieces.
  • ENJOY!!
