*Cool completely.
*Frost brownies with frosting.

*Meanwhile, put cereal in a large bowl and set aside.
*In a 1 quart saucepan, melt peanut butter and chocolate chips over low heat, stirring constantly.

*Personal Notes:  This recipe, although delicious, can be a little sweet. You can either cut the brown sugar in half or not include it at all if you want a less sweet version. It is great either way!
