Nutella Muddy Buddies

Muddy Buddies or Puppy Chow is one of our go to snacks in the Hatland house. They are easy to make and the ingredient options are endless really. This is one of those wonderful recipes like cookies, that you can really cater to any taste, event and holiday gather. With that in mind here is one of my daughter’s favorites.

Nutella Muddy Buddies

Ingredients:

1 Cup Nutella
12 oz. Chocolate Chips
½ Cup Butter
5 Cups Chex cereal
2 ½ Cup of powdered sugar

Directions:

Start by pouring the Chex cereal into a large bowl and set aside. I like to be prepared!

Second, place the chocolate chips and 4 tablespoons of butter into a medium size saucepan and heat on medium, stirring occasionally until melted. Once the chocolate is melted through, add in Nutella and stir until completely combined and smooth.

Now the fun begins. Pour the yummy chocolately Nutella mixture over the top of the chex cereal and use a large spoon to mix well, completely coating all the cereal. I’m already tempted to taste just one!

The, pour the powdered sugar over the top of the chocolate/Nutella covered cereal and stir to completely coat with the powdered sugar. Or if you like living on the wild side, add the powered sugar to a ziplock bag, pour in the Nutella mixture and shake, shake, shake!

If not serving immediately, store in an airtight container for later snacking.

These make excellent treats for snack time, sporting events and even giftables!

Enjoy!
