Be warned - this is super addicting!
Ingredients
·
6 C. rice Chex cereal (I found
peanut butter Chex and used that)
·
1 C. milk chocolate chips or
melts
·
1/2 C. peanut butter creamy
·
1 tsp. vanilla extract
·
1 to 2 C. brownie mix from
the box (dry)
·
Optional: Brownies, Reese's Pieces, or Peanut butter cups
(chopped)
Instructions:
Place cereal in a large bowl and set aside.
In a microwave
proof bowl, melt chocolate, peanut butter and vanilla extract and stir until
smooth. Pour over cereal and fold until covered.
Dump into a large
plastic bag and add brownie mix, seal and shake until coated. (If you don't
have a large plastic bag, pour brownie mix over cereal and stir well. Or you
can use a pot with a lid to shake it in.)
Toss in whatever
chocolate or peanut butter candy pieces you want. I did peanut butter M&Ms,
fudge brownie M&Ms and Reese’s pieces.
Shake again.
The original
recipe called for 1 cup of boxed brownie mix. I found that didn’t coat the
cereal mixture very well, so I added more. Then I made an 8x8 pan of brownies
with the remaining mix. You could crumble those into the puppy chow too.
