Here is the recipe I think you are looking for. I had copied it on my computer and never deleted it after printing it out. I made this over Christmas and we liked it but the popcorn got a little stale after about a week

Monster Munch

2 bags microwave popcorn, (3.5 ounces each) popped
4 cups corn and rice cereal
2 cups tiny pretzels
2 cups minature marshmallows, divided
1 cup semisweet chocolate morsels
1/2 cup creamy or crunchy peanut butter
1/4 cup stick margarine.
2 cups confectioners sugar
1 cup peanuts (optional)

Combine popcorn, cereal and pretzels in a large bowl. Melt 1 cup marshmallows, chocolate morsels, peanut butter and margarine in sauce pan over medium heat, stirring constantly. Drizzle marshmallow mixture evenly over mixture in the bowl, tossing to coat. Sprinkle powdered sugar over mixture, tossing to coat. Spread mixture in single layer onto large piece of wax paper; cool completely. Toss remaining 1 cup marshmellows and peanuts, if desired with popcorn mixture. Store in airtight container.
about a week. Enjoy :o)
