I dare you...

Replace one cup of the chex with nuts (walnuts are my fave) - even better than plain muddy buddies!

Oh, I've been making this for years! My grandmother showed me how to make it when I was little and she would make it with me all the time and it is still a party favorite!!! We called it Puppy Chow though! LOL! And YES, VERY VERY addicting!
 
ive had those before but since chocolate isnt really my thing I can eat just one or two and be ok. (now if it was peanut butter instead Id be in trouble LOL)
 
that is an impossible challenge! when i make them they are gone in a matter of minutes. CANNOT STOP EATING MUDDY BUDDIES!
 
OH no!!! I made the mistake of making a batch for our road trip and I think I ate the whole batch myself... at least the scale showed I gained 4 pounds. My 2 year old DS didn't like it (odd)... and my hubby prefers regular chex mix... so it was all mine.

I'm drooling thinking about it...
 
WOW...am I the only one that has never had that before!?!?!? I've had regualr chex mix but never that kind!!!! I'm headed to the store...i might need to pick up those ingredients!!!!
 
Ooh we love Puppy Chow too, I haven't made it in forever though. Might have to pick up the ingredients the next time I grocery shop & make some!
 
I was afraid to click it...but looked at the ingredients...I'm safe from it...I don't care for peanut butter except on PB&J and to dip carrots into. LOL I was afraid it was going to be a recipe similar to what I made last month that about put me in a chocolate coma!
 
You know, as soon as I saw your first sentence, I just KNEW you were talking about Puppy Chow, even without seeing what you were making! That stuff is like snack crack.

No, this is crack. Seriously.

1 box Rice Chex (or other brand)
1 1/3 C. sugar
1/2 C white Karo syrup
1 C butter (2 sticks) NOT MARGARINE
2 tsp. vanilla
1-2 C peanuts (whatever you like)

Pour box of rice chex in a huge bowl. Heat sugar, Karo syrup and butter over stove with candy thermometer, until it reaches the softball stage (240 degrees). If you don't have a candy thermometer then you will know it's done when it's really bubbling and turns a caramel color. Remove from burner and add 2 tsp. vanilla (be careful, it may spit at you). Add peanuts and stir. Pour over the rice chex and mix/stir with a big spoon until it is all coated. Spread it out on a "sprayed" wax paper or tin foil until it cools. Enjoy!

It's addictive!!!
 
I made that at Christmas for a cookie/candy exchange and I couldn't stop eating it. I had to make a second batch to fill all my commitments. LOL
 
Nope, not gonna do it. No way Jose ... it will be gone. Kids will ask what that smell is and I'll have to say with a mouth full of the last bite ... "what smell"???? ;)
