Reindeer Chow {Muddy Buddies} (a spin-off of Puppy Chow)

Reindeer Chow {Muddy Buddies}

Ingredients

1. 14 Cups Chex cereal
2. 18 oz holiday m&ms
3. 12 oz semi sweet chocolate, bar or chips
4. 1/2 Cup unsalted butter
5. 1 Cup peanut butter
6. 1 tsp vanilla extract
7. 4-5 Cups powdered sugar

Instructions

1. Melt the peanut butter and butter in a microwave safe dish. Microwave in 30 second intervals until butter is melted. Add the chocolate a little at a time until all is melted into the mix. You might need to microwave one last time to make sure everything is melted and add the vanilla. Stir together.
2. In a large bowl add half of the cereal.
3. Drizzle half of the chocolate peanut butter mixture into the cereal in the bowl. Mix with a spoon.
4. Place one large paper bag into another one. Add 1/2 cup of the powdered sugar and half of the mixed cereal into the bag. Close this tightly and shake vigorously. Add more powdered sugar 1/2 cup at a time if needed until all the cereal is coated. Add 1/4 of the m&ms into the bag and toss. Place in an air tight container.
5. Continue these step with the remaining ingredients.
6. Keep stored in an air tight container. I personally love to keep it in the freezer, YUM!
7. Enjoy!
