Puppy Chow


















This simple and tasty snack doesn't last long at our house. I enjoy it cold from the refrigerator with raisins and pretzels mixed in the bowl. The crunchy, salty pretzels mixed with the sweetness of the raisins and squares is a perfect combo!
Don't mix in the pretzels and raisins until serving.

















Puppy Chow


12 oz. box of Crispix ~or 12 cups Rice or Corn Chex (or mixture of both)
1 stick of butter
1 cup peanut butter
2 cups chocolate chips ~ I like a mix of milk and semi sweet
2-3 cups powdered sugar
pretzels and raisins (optional)

In microwave, melt butter, peanut butter and chocolate for about 2-3 minutes, stirring a few times until chips are smooth.
Pour cereal in a large bowl and pour melted mixture over the cereal.
Stir until well coated. Put half the mixture into a gallon size Ziploc bag and pour about a cup or so of powdered sugar in bag and shake until cereal is covered. May need to add a little more powdered sugar. Pour out onto a cookie sheet lined with waxed paper. Do the same with the rest of the mixture. Allow to cool and dry on wax paper then place in an air tight container and store in the refrigerator.
