People Chow by Christmas with Southern Living 1994

This recipe was sent in by a young Southern Living reader. She thought the candy looked a lot like Puppy Chow - but this is very definitely people food! It was a big hit with the Test Kitchens home economists, who like the flavor combination of graham cereal, chocolate, and peanut butter.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup butter or margarine
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 (11 1/2 ounce) package milk chocolate morsels
1 (12 ounce) box honey graham cereal
3 cups sifted powdered sugar

Instructions:

Combine first 3 ingredients in a large saucepan; cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until chocolate melts and mixture is smooth. Add cereal, stirring to coat. Place half of the powdered sugar in a large heavy duty zip-top plastic bag; add cereal mixture and remaining half of powdered sugar. Seal bag, and gently shake to coat. Pour mixture onto 2 cookie sheets; let dry. Separate large pieces with fork, if necessary. Yield: 12 cups.
