Childhood Classic: Chex Muddy Buddies

We recently moved to Texas and boy howdy it's hot here! Last weekend when temperatures reached 112 degrees the AC was struggling to keep the house cool so using the oven wasn't an option. Craving something sweet I made Chex Muddy Buddies. This is a childhood classic and my favorite no-bake recipe!  

Ingredients:

9	cups Rice Chex, Corn Chex or Chocolate Chex cereal (or combination)
1	cup semisweet chocolate chips
1/2	cup peanut butter
1/4	cup butter or margarine
1	teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2	cups powdered sugar

Directions:

1.	Into large bowl, measure cereal; set aside.
2.	In 1-quart microwavable bowl, microwave chocolate chips, peanut butter and butter uncovered on High 1 minute; stir. Microwave about 30 seconds longer or until mixture can be stirred smooth. Stir in vanilla. Pour mixture over cereal, stirring until evenly coated. Pour into 2-gallon resealable food-storage plastic bag.
3.	Add powdered sugar. Seal bag; shake until well coated. Spread on waxed paper to cool. Store in airtight container in refrigerator.
