Muddy Buddy Krispies (Printable Version)

Easy no-bake cereal snacks coated in melty peanut butter, chocolate, and sweet powdered sugar. Perfect for munching or sharing!

# What You'll Need:

01 - 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar to coat.
02 - 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter.
03 - 6 cups puffed rice cereal.
04 - 1/4 cup plain butter, not salted.
05 - 2 cups of chocolate pieces.
06 - 1 teaspoon vanilla for flavor.

# Steps to Follow:

01 - Pull together the cereal, chocolate, butter, peanut butter, and vanilla so they're ready to use.
02 - Mix the peanut butter with the chocolate chips in a bowl. Heat it in the microwave for 30 seconds at a time, stirring between heatings, until it's smooth.
03 - Mix the melted butter and a bit of vanilla into the chocolate peanut butter mixture, giving it a good stir until it's all combined.
04 - Carefully pour the chocolate mixture over the puffed rice cereal in a large bowl. Toss gently to coat all the pieces evenly.
05 - Spread the coated cereal mixture onto a tray and leave it alone to cool until everything firms up.
06 - Dump the cooled pieces into a resealable bag with powdered sugar. Shake lightly so all the pieces get a good coating. Sprinkle it on top if you'd like instead.
07 - Slice it into portions, and they're good to munch on.

# Additional Notes:

01 - Experiment with nut butters or chocolate types to switch it up.
02 - Shake carefully to make sure every piece gets sugar evenly.
