Make-It Monday 6/6/2011

This week, I am going on a playdate with some of my mama friends that I met online- hooray! So I am making Chex "Muddy Buddies", aka "Puppy/People Chow". It's nummy, and since we'll have 3 toddlers there, easy to eat!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9 cups cereal (it calls for Chex, but I use a generic that is a combo of rice & corn)
1 c. semisweet chocolate chips
1/2 c. peanut butter (I use generic for things like this- the chocolate makes it better!)
1/4 c. butter or margarine
1 tsp. vanilla (I tend to dump & pour with vanilla :)
1 1/2 c. powdered sugar.
--------------------------------
In a 1-qt. microwavable bowl, heat chocolate chips, peanut butter & butter on HIGH for 1 minute. Stir. Heat about 30 seconds more until mix can be stirred smooth. Stir in vanilla. Pour mixture over the cereal (in a large bowl) and stir until evenly coated. Pour into a large (2 gallon if you have it- I end up using 2 one-gallon & splitting everything in half) resealable food-storage plastic bag. Add powdered sugar (3/4 c. in each bag if you had to split it!). Seal the bag(s) & shake until well coated. Pour out onto waxed paper to cool (and for easy early "taste-testing." Store in the refrigerator.
---------------------------------
Nummy!
Sure hope I'm not breaking any rules by posting this from the Chex box!!
I will probably post about our playdate on Tuesday :)

  1. Yay for yumminess! I want to try this recipe! And I don't think any rules are broken since you clearly stated that it's from the Chex box. LOL!
