Equipment
- 1 Large tupperware with lid
- 1 Microwave safe bowl
Ingredients
- 8 Cups Cheerios
- 1 Cup Chocolate Chips
- ½ Cup Peanut Butter
- ½ Cup Butter
- 1 Teaspoon Vanilla
- 1 ½ Cups Powdered Sugar
Instructions
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips, peanut butter, and butter. Microwave for about 1 minute. Stir in the vanilla and mix until smooth and melted.
- Add the Cheerios to a large Tupperware (or other container) with a tight-fitting lid.
- Pour the warm chocolate–peanut butter mixture over the Cheerios. Gently stir or fold until all of the cereal is evenly coated.
- Add the powdered sugar, seal the lid, and shake well until the Cheerios are fully covered and no wet spots remain.
Notes
- Use a large container with a tight lid so you have plenty of room to shake and coat the Cheerios evenly.
- Let the chocolate mixture cool just a minute or two before pouring over the cereal so it doesn’t make the Cheerios soggy.
- If the powdered sugar doesn’t seem to cover everything, add a little more and shake again until there are no wet spots left.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for a few days, or in the fridge if your kitchen is very warm.
