Ingredients:

  • 9 cups Rice or Corn Chex cereal (approx. 270g)
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (170g)
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter (128g)
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1.5 cups powdered sugar (180g)
  • 1 cup Valentine M&Ms
  • 1/2 cup Valentine-themed sprinkles

Instructions:

  1. Measure 9 cups (approx. 270g) of Rice or Corn Chex cereal into a very large bowl.
  2. In a microwave safe bowl, combine 1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips, 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter, and 1/4 cup unsalted butter. Heat in 30 second bursts, stirring in between. Stop when it's silky and glossy.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract and 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt.
  4. Pour the warm chocolate mixture over the cereal. Using a wide spatula, fold from the bottom up. Do this until the cereal looks like it’s been dipped in brown velvet.
  5. Transfer the coated cereal to a large bag containing 1.5 cups of powdered sugar. Seal it with plenty of air inside. Shake vigorously for 30 seconds. Listen for the sound to change from wet thuds to dry rattles.
  6. Spread the mix onto a parchment lined tray. While still slightly tacky, toss in 1 cup Valentine M&Ms and 1/2 cup Valentine themed sprinkles. Let it rest for 15 minutes until the surface feels dry and the chocolate is set.
