- 1 1/2 Tbsp coconut oil
- 1/2 cup natural peanut butter
- 1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips allergy-friendly
- 12.8 oz Chocolate Chex Cereal About 8 - 8 1/2 cups
- 1 scoop chocolate vegan protein powder We used Orgain Organic Protein Chocolate
- 1 Tbsp PB2 powdered peanut butter.
In a large saucepan heat coconut oil, peanut butter, and chocolate chips. Heat until melted and completely mixed.
Add the box of Chex cereal and mix until all squares are coated.
Dump coated squares into a large gallon-sized bag.
Combine chocolate protein powder and PB2. Add to the bag with the cereal.
Shake it around until cereal squares are completely dusted. If it's easier you can toss the cereal around in a large mixing bowl while coating with the protein powder mixture.
1 scoop of protein powder is about 3 tablespoons and 1 teaspoon.
I use Orgain Organic Protein Chocolate. Orgain is my favorite protein powder and it is sugar-free.
