PUPPY CHOW RECIPE (MUDDY BUDDIES)

Steps:

• Melt peanut butter and chocolate together, either on the stovetop or in the microwave.
• Next, add 3 cups of cereal to a large bowl. Pour 1 cup of your chocolate/peanut butter mixture over the cereal.
• Add 3 more cups of cereal to the bowl and then pour the rest of the chocolate/peanut butter mixture on top.
• Stir until the cereal is evenly coated. If there are pools of chocolate/peanut butter at the bottom of your bowl, add more cereal 1/4 cup at a time until all that deliciousness is coating your cereal. Remember we WANT clumps, so do NOT add too much cereal!
• Let the mixture cool slightly (I throw mine in the fridge or outside on my porch if it's cold out). You do not want it to harden!
• Once your mixture is at or below room temperature, add 1 cup of powdered sugar. Mix until combined.
• Let cool for about 15 minutes.
• Add more powdered sugar 1/4 cup at a time until your cereal is coated to your satisfaction.
• Store in an airtight container at room temperature, if it lasts more than 0.3 seconds.
