Ingredients
Scale
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1/4 cup butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
6 cups puffed rice cereal
1 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips, peanut butter, and butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth.
Stir in vanilla and almond extracts.
Pour the melted mixture over the puffed rice cereal and stir gently until evenly coated.

Add the coated cereal to the bag and shake until well coated.
Spread the coated cereal in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.

Adjust the amount of pumpkin pie spice and cinnamon to your preference.
