Line a 9x13-inch baking dish with parchment paper or lightly grease it. Set aside.
In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the peanut butter and honey. Stir continuously until the mixture is melted and smooth. This should take about 3-5 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
In a large mixing bowl, pour the melted peanut butter and honey mixture over the Special K cereal. Mix gently but thoroughly to coat the cereal evenly.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and press it firmly into an even layer using the back of a spatula or your hands (lightly greased to prevent sticking).
Sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the top of the mixture. Let them sit for about 1-2 minutes to soften, then use a spatula to gently spread the melted chocolate over the top.
Chill the dish in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or until the snaps have set and the chocolate is firm.
Once chilled, remove from the refrigerator and slice into squares or bars. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
