Muddy Buddy Mix!!!!!
Ingredients:
- 9 cups Rice Chex Cereal
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1/2 cup peanut butter
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 1/2 cups seasonal candy
- 1 1/2 cups Reese’s Pieces
- 2 cups pretzels (can be the minis, regular, sticks)
Seasonal Candy Ideas:
Halloween- Candy corn
Christmas- Peppermints
Valentines Day- Candy hearts
Steps:
- Pour Chex Cereal in a large bowl and set aside.
- In a microwave safe bowl melt chocolate chips, butter and peanut butter together on high for one minute.
- Stir and return to microwave, microwaving in 30 second increments until melted together and smooth.
- Stir in vanilla.
- Pour chocolate-peanut butter mixture over the cereal and gently stir to coat. I like to put on a pair of kitchen gloves and use my hands to toss the cereal in the chocolate so I don’t crush it.
- Place cereal in a large zip lock bag, pour powdered sugar in, seal and shake until evenly coated.
- Spread cereal out on to wax paper and let cool completely.
- In a large bowl combine cereal, seasonal candy of your choice, Reese’s Pieces, and pretzels. Lastly, mix it all together.
- Store in an air-tight container.
There you have it! A delicious, mouthwatering treat to make your holiday party the party of the season. Enjoy!
