Pink Powder Puff Crunch

My friend Stacey turned me on to this variation of traditional Puppy Chow and we are hooked!

9 cups Chex
1 1/2 cups chocolate chips (Ghiradelli has a dairy free variety)
1/3 cup butter or butter substitute
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1 box strawberry Jello

Measure cereal into large bowl.  In microwave safe bowl melt chocolate chips and butter 1 minute.  Stir and microwave 15-30 seconds longer or until mixture can be stirred smooth.  Stir in vanilla and pour over cereal, stirring until evenly coated.  In large bowl or baggie mix powdered sugar and Jello.  Add cereal and stir or shake until well coated.

The recipe then calls to spread the mixture on wax paper and cool for 15 minutes, but we all know Sophia and I couldn't wait that long to dig in! :-)
