Step-by-Step Instructions
To kick things off, I start by measuring out my Chex cereal into a large mixing bowl. This way, it’s all ready to go when my melted chocolate mixture is done. Next, I grab a microwave-safe bowl and combine the chocolate chips, peanut butter, and butter. I pop it into the microwave, heating it in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth. The rich aroma fills my kitchen, and I can hardly wait! Once it’s fully melted and creamy, I add in the vanilla extract for that extra depth of flavor. Don’t you just love the smell of melted chocolate? It’s divine! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
