Pin Recipe Print Recipe
Ingredients
  • 8 cups Chocolate Chex™ cereal
  • ¾ cup packed brown sugar
  • 6 tablespoons butter or margarine
  • 3 tablespoons light corn syrup
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 cup Reese's Minis Peanut Butter Cups
  • 1 cup miniature marshmallows
  • ½ cup caramel bits or chopped regular caramels
  • 1 tablespoon heavy cream
  • ½ cup milk chocolate baking chips add more if you want extra chocolate
  • ½ cup vanilla white chocolate baking chips
  • 1 teaspoon coarse sea salt
Instructions
  • Measure the cereal into a large, microwave-safe bowl and set aside. Line a cookie sheet with waxed paper or foil.
  • In a microwaveable cup, combine brown sugar, butter, and corn syrup. Microwave on high for 1-2 minutes, stirring halfway through, until melted and smooth. Stir in baking soda until dissolved.
  • Pour the caramel mixture over the cereal and mix to coat evenly. Microwave on high for 3 minutes, stirring every minute. Spread mixture onto the cookie sheet to cool for 10 minutes, then break into pieces.
  • Once the Chex mix is cool, sprinkle the Reese's minis and marshmallows evenly over it.
  • Melt the caramel bits with cream in a small bowl, microwaving about 1 minute or until smooth. Drizzle over the mix.
  • Melt the milk chocolate chips in 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth, and drizzle over the mix. Repeat with the white chocolate chips.
  • While the drizzle is still wet, sprinkle coarse salt over everything.
  • Refrigerate until set, then break apart and store in an airtight container.
