Muddy Buddies!!!

So a few years ago,  not really sure how many I came across a recipe on the back of a box of Chex cereal.. the Rice chex I believe..  the recipe is named Chex Muddy Buddies and they are addictive..  OMG if you have never had them,  you have to try them..  My kids LOVE these..  they could eat these all the time,  but knowing how good they are I only make them around Christmas and New Years.. 

Chex Muddy Buddies

9 c Chex Corn or Rice cereal
1 c semi sweet chocolate chips
1/2 c peanut butter
1/4 c butter
1 tsp vanilla
3 c powdered sugar

In a large microwavable bowl or measuring cup melt the chocolate chips, peanut butter and butter,  stirring often.  I start at 1 minute,  take out and stir and then put back in.. when all melted add the vanilla and stir well. 
Put the cereal in a large bowl and then pour the melted chocolate, peanut butter mixture over and stir until the cereal is all coated..
In a large gallon to 2 gallon ziplock plastic bag put 1 cup of powdered sugar,  add about 1/2 of the cereal mixture,  add another cup of powdered sugar and the rest of the cereal mixture and top with the last cup of powdered sugar..  seal the bag well and start shaking until the cereal is all coated with the powdered sugar.  spread on a cookie sheet lined with wax or parchment paper and allow to cool..  keep in a sealed container or bag..
