This easy puppy chow recipe (aka muddy buddies) is made with just 5 simple ingredients! The peanut butter chocolate combo makes it such a delicious sweet treat that’s absolutely addicting.
Place chocolate chips and peanut butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave, uncovered, on high for 1 minute, then stir. Continue warming mixture until smooth and combined, in 30 second increments.
Stir in the vanilla to the chocolate peanut butter mixture.
Pour chocolate mixture over cereal, tossing cereal as you pour. Stir until evenly coated. Place coated cereal into the fridge to cool for 10-15 minutes before transferring to a 2-gallon resealable plastic bag.
Add powdered sugar to the bag and seal; shake until well-coated. Evenly spread cereal out onto parchment paper to cool.
Enjoy right away or store in the fridge for later!
