Ingredients

Scale

Brownie Batter

  • Brownie mix, enough to serve as coating (prepared and heated to 165°F for 3-5 minutes)

Chocolate Mixture

  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup salted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Main Ingredient

  • 6 cups Rice Chex cereal

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Brownie Batter: Heat the brownie mix in the microwave for 3-5 minutes or until it reaches 165°F. Set aside to keep warm.
  2. Make the Chocolate Mixture: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine dark chocolate chips, creamy peanut butter, and salted butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring thoroughly between each interval until the mixture is completely melted and smooth. Stir in the vanilla extract for added flavor.
  3. Coat the Cereal: Pour the melted chocolate mixture over the Rice Chex cereal in a large mixing bowl. Gently stir using a spatula to ensure every piece of cereal is evenly coated with the chocolate peanut butter mixture.
  4. Add the Brownie Batter: Transfer the coated cereal into a large resealable plastic bag. Add the warmed brownie batter to the bag. Seal the bag tightly and shake vigorously until the cereal pieces are evenly coated with the brownie batter mixture.
  5. Cool and Serve: Spread the coated cereal mixture evenly onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Allow it to cool completely to set before serving or storing in an airtight container.

Notes

  • Ensure the chocolate mixture is not too hot before mixing with the Rice Chex, to prevent sogginess.
  • For added texture and flavor, try mixing in mini marshmallows, chopped nuts, or chocolate chips after coating.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week to maintain freshness.
  • This snack is rich and indulgent, so serving sizes should be moderate.
