Halloween Muddy Buddies

Directions

1. Pour the entire box of Peanut Butter Chex cereal into an extra-large bowl and set it aside.
2. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the butter, creamy peanut butter, and semi-sweet chocolate chips. Heat in the microwave in 20-second bursts, stirring after each interval, until everything is fully melted, which should take about 90 to 120 seconds. Take the bowl out and stir in the vanilla extract.
3. Drizzle the melted chocolate mixture over the cereal while gently folding it in, making sure every piece gets coated. Continue until all the chocolate mixture is used.
4. Sprinkle one cup of powdered sugar over the coated cereal and stir well. Repeat with the remaining powdered sugar, adding one cup at a time, and stirring thoroughly each time until the cereal is heavily dusted.
5. Gently fold in the Halloween M&M's, sprinkles, and the severed candy fingers. Allow the Muddy Buddies to cool completely before storing them in an airtight container.
