… also known as People Puppy Chow. I really can’t describe for you how delicious and addictive this stuff is. I first had People Puppy Chow at a friend’s house as a kid, and it was a game changer! From then on it always showed up at parties and potlucks and is an easy win.
Full disclosure: I didn’t make this batch. A friend dropped it off for us, and I’ve had to hide it, because my older girl is allergic to peanut butter, and I didn’t want to salivate over this stuff when she can’t have any. My days of Muddy Buddies may be limited, but yours don’t have to be. Make this for the next party / movie night / kids sleepover, and enjoy!
Muddy Buddies / People Puppy Chow
Ingredients:
- 2 cups of chocolate chips
- 1 cup smooth peanut butter
- 1/2 stick butter
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 box of Crispix or Chex cereal
- 1 box powdered sugar
Directions:
- In a saucepan over medium-low heat, stir together the chocolate chips, peanut butter, butter, and vanilla, until smooth and melted.
- Empty the box of cereal into the largest bowl you have. Pour the chocolate mixture over the cereal and stir to completely coat.
- In a large paper grocery bag, pour in the powdered sugar, then pour in the coated cereal. Close up the top and shake and toss to cover the cereal in powdered sugar.
- Dump it all out of the bag onto a few baking sheets to cool. Separate any big clumps. Try not to eat it all at once!
