Ingredients:
1 box (12.8 oz.) chocolate flavored Chex cereal (about 8 cups)
1 c. roasted, lightly salted peanuts
2 c. powdered sugar
16 oz. chocolate CandiQuik
1 c. Reese's peanut butter chips
1 bag (8 oz.) Reese's minis
1 c. Reese's pieces
20 Reese's miniatures, halved
Additional peanuts, peanut butter chips and Reese's as needed

Directions:
Combine Chex cereal and peanuts in a very large bowl and set aside.

Divide powdered sugar into 2 large, gallon size ziploc bags and set aside.

Line a large baking sheet or surface with parchment paper.  

Break up CandiQuik and sprinkle with peanut butter chips.  Melt according to CandiQuik package instructions.

Drizzle the melted chocolate-peanut butter mixture over the top of the cereal and peanuts and toss gently to combine.  Make sure it is well coated.  Gently fold in Reese's minis.

Transfer half of the chocolate-coated cereal mixture into one bag with powdered sugar and half into the other bag.  Close each bag tightly and gently shake until the mixture is fully coated.  Repeat with the remaining bag.

Spread the contents of both bags onto the parchment lined surface and let set up for 15 minutes.

Sprinkle on the Reese's pieces, Reese's miniatures and additional peanuts, peanut butter chips and Reese's pieces if desired.  Toss gently to combine.  

Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
