In a large bowl, measure cereal and set aside.
In 1-quart microwavable bowl, microwave chocolate chips, peanut butter and butter uncovered on High 1 minute and stir.
Take it out and mix, if not all is melted return for 30 seconds longer, then stir in the vanilla.

Notes

Because this is a little messy to mix when I make a bunch, I get the biggest zip lock bags to shake the sugar around or a very large closed container to shake.
