Melt the mixture in the microwave in bursts of 30 seconds, stirring until completely melted.

Stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract once melted.

Transfer the Chex to a larger bowl for easier mixing.

Pour the chocolate mixture over the Chex and stir gently to coat without breaking the cereal.

Add between 1.5 to 2 cups of powdered sugar to the bowl and stir until everything is coated.

Transfer to a serving dish and enjoy.
