Bunny Chow with Chex Mix (Puppy Chow)

Muddy Buddies, Puppy or Bunny Chow?

This tasty little snack mix goes by many names. Perhaps you know it as Puppy Chow or Muddy Buddies – whatever you call it, it’s delicious and hard to resist! Really hard! With Easter around the corner,  it’s easy to turn your Muddy Buddies recipe into Bunny Chow!

The kids and I used white chocolate instead of milk chocolate and added some seasonal candy coated chocolate eggs and the combo is soooo good!

I originally thought of using seasonal M&Ms in the mix, but somehow Target was out {not sure how that’s even possible this time of year}, but they did have some larger Easter Milk Chocolate Eggs and I think the swap worked out even better!

Bunny Chow Recipe

The kids have been enjoying the Bunny Chow as a little treat in their lunches. I think some of their classmates are jealous! Truly it’s good any time of the day.

Bunny Chow or Muddy Buddies are always a hit at get togethers – the bowl will empty before you know it. So grab the 6 simple ingredients {you probably have most of them on hand right now} and whip up a batch today!

As you can see here, I could hardly get a picture without little hands trying to be sneaky and grab just a nibble 🙂

Although I didn’t grow up eating Chex cereal, we were more of a Cheerio kind of family, I always loved Muddy Buddies when we went to other people’s homes. Now I can share the tradition with my kids. Yum.
