1/4 c. (1/2 stick) butter
1/4 tsp. vanilla extract
1 1/2 c. confectioners' sugar

Pour cereal in large bowl. Combine chocolate chips, peanut butter and butter in microwave safe bowl or saucepan. If microwave, high 1-1 1/2 minutes or until smooth, stirring after 1 minute. If on top of stove, stir until melted. Add vanilla.
