Peanut Butter Captain Chow

from thehousewifeintrainingfiles.com

This recipe has been haunting me on my Pinterest board for about three weeks now, so I broke down and tried it out.  I almost made it through the week without making a treat.  K....So anyway, this muddy buddies (or puppy chow, if you will) recipe takes a different twist with the usual Rice Chex cereal, instead this calls for Cap'n Crunch.  As a true devoted lover of that cereal, I will go out and say that this is the best combination of goodness I could munch on.  
DISCLAIMER***:  IF YOU DO NOT LIKE PEANUT BUTTER, THIS RECIPE IS NOT FOR YOU (i hope this doesn't apply to anyone)

Enjoy!

I N G R E D I E N T S
--4 1/2 cups Cap'n Crunch Peanut Butter Crunch
--4 1/2 cups Cap'n Crunch [regular]
--1/2 cup milk chocolate chips
--1/2 cup peanut butter chips
--4 tbsp. (1/2 stick) butter
--1/2 cup peanut butter
--2 cups powdered sugar
--1/2 peanut butter chips, to mix in at the end

--In a microwave safe bowl, combine 1/2 cup peanut butter chips and chocolate chips with butter and melt in the microwave in 20 second increments until smooth.
--Beautiful example.
--To that, add 1/2 cup peanut butter and stir until combined.
--Poifect.
--In a large mixing bowl, combine the two cereals.
--Pour the peanut butter/chocolate mixture over the cereal, mixing it to evenly coat each piece.
--The sooner you pour in the peanut butter/chocolate mixture, the easier it is to coat the cereal.
--Next, dump in the powdered sugar and slowly stir the cereal around, allowing each piece to get an even coating of it.
--Flawless (<--name my favorite song)
--Lastly, pour in the 1/2 cup of peanut butter chips we nearly forgot about.
