1/2 cup Sunbutter

1/4 cup Earth Balance Natural Buttery Spread

1 tsp. vanilla

2 cups powdered sugar, divided into 1 cups

1 gal. zipper bag

Measure cereal into a large bowl.

In a 1 qt. microwave safe bowl, combine mega chunks, sunbutter, and earth balance "butter".  Microwave 30 seconds, stir, 30 seconds, stir, 30 seconds, stir.  Stir in vanilla.  Pour over cereal; stir to evenly coat.

Add 1 cup powdered sugar to zippered gallon bag.  Add 1/2 the chocolate covered cereal.  Seal the bag and shake up the cereal until well coated with powdered sugar.  Pour out onto a tray to set up.  Add another 1 cup powdered sugar to the zippered gallon bag and repeat the coating of the last 1/2 of the chocolate covered cereal.
