Print Recipe
Serves: 30 Cooking Time: 0-minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 (12-ounce) box Peanut Butter Chex cereal (or any variety)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 4 cups powdered sugar
  • 2 cups Halloween M&M's
  • 1 cup Halloween sprinkles
  • 1 package of Wilton severed candy fingers

Instructions

1

In an extra large bowl, empty the entire box of Chex. Set aside.

2

In a microwave safe bowl, add the butter, peanut butter and chocolate chips. Microwave in 20-second increments, stopping to stir the mixture each time. Microwave until all the ingredients have fully melted together (approximately 90-120 seconds). Remove the bowl from the microwave and stir the vanilla extract into the peanut butter-chocolate mixture.

3

Pour the melted chocolate mixture over the Chex, stirring the mixture gently as you pour, to ensure the chocolate-peanut butter mixture coats all the pieces of Chex. Continue this method until you have poured the entire chocolate-peanut butter mixture over the cereal.

4

Sprinkle one cup of powdered sugar over the chocolate coated cereal, stirring to coat the cereal. Continue adding the powder sugar, one cup at a time, to the coated cereal, stirring to ensure the cereal is coated in a heavy amount of powdered sugar.

5

Fold in Halloween M&M's, sprinkles and add the severed fingers. Let Muddy Buddies cool completely before storing.

Notes

Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
