Muddy Buddies
1 6oz. pkg (or 1 cup) semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup peanuts (optional)
6 cups kellog's crispix cereal
1 cup powdered sugar
In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate for 1 minute. Stir and heat 30 seconds longer or until melted completely when stirred. Stir in peanut butter and peanuts. Gently stir in crispix cereal until evenly coated. Place powdered sugar in a 2 gallon ziploc bag. Add coated cereal to sugar and close bag (I usually fold the sides of the bag down first so I can roll them back up and not have it be all messy) Gently toss cereal mixture until evenly coated. Store in airtight container in refrigerator. 16 servings.
If you haven't tried these...they are divine! (Kellog's calls them "sweet minglers" but we always called them muddy buddies)
