Puppy Chow

This was the snack we made to fill Alivia's birthday treats. This snack is really easy and always seems to be a hit.

What You Need

1/2 cup peanut butter
1/4 cup butter
1 cup chocolate chips
1/2 teaspoon vanilla

9 cups Crispix/Chex Cereal

3 cups powdered sugar

Directions

1. Combine chocolate chips, peanut butter, and butter in a microve safe bowl. Microwave for 30 second increments. Stir every 30 seconds until all ingredients are blended thoroughly.

2. Add 1/2 teaspoon vanilla. Stir well.

3. Place the 9 cups of Crispix/Chex into a very large bowl.

4. Pour the chocolate/peanut butter mix over the cereal and toss evenly. Be sure the the cereal gets a good covering.

5. Place the powdered suger in a large zip-lock bag.

6. Add the chocolate/peanut butter mix to the bag. Be sure to leave enough room for the puppy chow to be shaken (we used two separate gallon size baggies for this).

7. Shake the bag until each piece is coated with powdered sugar.

8. Eat and enjoy!

This was always a favorite growing up. But seriously what is not to love. Peanut butter and chocolate are two of my favorite things.

WARNING: Hide the extras because there may be a temper tantrum in the morning when "Puppy Chow" is not on the menu.
