Monkey Munch

This is our family's favorite new snack and it is super easy to make. In fact, the kids make it by themselves. That's my kinda snack!

9 cups Chex cereal (any variety)
1 cup chocolate chips
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/4 cut butter or margarine
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar

Put chex in a large bowl and set aside.
Place chocolate chips, peanut butter and butter into a quart-sized microwavable bowl.
Stir ingredients together.
Microwave the mixture uncovered for a minute on "high". Stir the mix again and continue to heat in 30 second intervals until it mixes smoothly.
Add vanilla and stir.
Pour over the cereal while stirring.
Put combination into a 2-gallon Ziploc freezer bag.
Add powdered sugar, seal the bag and shake until distributed.
Spread Monkey Munch out on wax paper to cool and dry.


Be prepared. It is very addictive.
YUM!
