Ingredients:  
6 cups chex (any kind you like)
1 cup chocolate chips
1 cup peanut butter
1.5-2 cups powdered sugar

Large Bowl
Microwaveable bowl
Ziploc Bag/ Plastic Bag
Directions:
Directions:
In a microwaveable bowl, put 1/2 cup of chocolate chips and 1/2 cup of peanut butter. Place in microwave for about 1 minute. At the 30 second mark, stir the mixture and microwave for longer. Continue at 30 second intervals until peanut butter and chocolate chips are well mixed.

In the large bowl, put about half of the chex. Using a spatula, gently stir the chocolate/pb mixture evenly over the cereal. Turn gently to keep the cereal intact, and stir until all coated.
In either a plastic grocery bag or a gallon ziploc bag, put in some powdered sugar. Put your newly covered cereal into the bag with the powdered sugar and shake until evenly coated. Some of the pieces will want to stick to the bottom, so make sure you move the bag enough to find the hiding pieces.

Repeat the process with the remaining cereal, pb, and chocolate.

Personal Notes:
I like to make mine in small batches to maximize the cereal coverage with peanut butter/chocolate/powdered sugar. I use a plastic grocery bag as I feel like it allows the pieces to move a little better and be better coated. Also, I probably use more than 1 cup of the chocolate and peanut butter, but I measure like grandma, so who really knows??
