Coconut Chex Muddy Buddies

Coconut Muddy Buddies:

Let’s start at the beginning…what do you call these? Do you know them as muddy buddies or puppy chow? I’ve heard it both ways, I think it just comes down to preference. But no matter what you call them, they are so delicious.

Because this recipe is a variation of a traditional muddy buddy recipe the shopping list looks a bit different.

Shopping List:

  • Rice Chex Mix Cereal
  • White Chocolate Chips
  • Powdered Sugar
  • Coconut Extract
  • Mini Marshmallows

The recipe is just as simple as the original recipe and so yummy.

Pro Tips:

  • Don’t over mix. The more you mix the more the cereal breaks, so mix carefully.
  • You can add more coconut extract if you want a stronger coconut flavor. I usually like a lot of coconut flavoring in mine so I do extra.
  • Be careful when heating the chocolate to not to heat it too long. Keep it short and then stir for best result.
  • You can store these in an airtight container or Ziplock baggie for storage.

This recipe makes a large amount so it’s perfect for parties or family gatherings. It’s really a perfect treat.
