Muddy Buddies, aka Puppy Chow, are a sweet and crunchy party snack made with Chex cereal that has been coated with chocolate and peanut butter and then powdered sugar. It is positively addicting. Ingredients Needed Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips Peanut Butter– use creamy peanut butter. You can substitute any nut butter. Unsalted Butter– this is already a fairly salty recipe so you don’t need the additional salt that is in salted butter. Mini Marshmallows– act as a glue to help hold the bars together. Rice Cex Cereal– you can use Corn Chex Cereal instead. Powdered Sugar How To Make Muddy Buddy Bars (More detailed instructions in recipe card below.) Microwave the chocolate chips, peanut butter, and butter in a microwave-safe bowl at 30-second intervals. Give it a stir between intervals. Once it is mostly melted, add the marshmallows. Microwave another 30 seconds. Stir to melt the marshmallows. Stir in the Chex Cereal. Work quickly because it will start to set up. Transfer to a 9×13-inch baking dish lined with parchment paper. Spread it out evenly. Let sit until firm. Cut into squares of desired size. Place powdered sugar in a large ziptop bag. Add a few bars at a time to the bag and shake until coated in sugar. Storage Will keep in an airtight container at room temperature for 4 to 5 days.
