Road Trip Treat!

I don't know what it is about this stuff, but I always gotta have it on a road trip. We're headin' to Cali in the morning, so I had to make me some
Puppy Chow!
9c. Crispex or Chex or the cheap store brand (that's what I used) =)
1/2 c. peanut butter
1/4. c. butter
16 oz semi sweet choco chips
1 tsp. vanilla
1 1/2 c. powdered sugar
Pour cereal into a lg bowl. Microwave PB, choco chips and butter for 1 minute. Stir. Microwave for 30 more seconds and stir. If it seems too thick add a little oil to thin it out. When done, add vanilla and stir. Pour chocolate over cereal and stir until coated (one of those plastic scrapers work the best). Pour powdered sugar over cereal and stir it around until coated or pour cereal into a lg paper bag, or plastic bag and shake the powdered sugar around. Spread onto a lg pan and put in the fridge for 20 minutes.
If you have never had this little treat, you gotta try it!
