Alright folks. If you try just one recipe from this blog, this should be it, because holy amazeballs. These are amazing! I’ve never been a muddy buddy fanatic. To me, they’ve always just been good, not great. Zachary on the other hand? He could live off of muddy buddies. He is always begging me to make them. In fact, did you know that Chex makes regular muddy buddies and sells them in stores? Those are always Zachary’s treat of choice on road trips. I think they need to market Butterfinger Muddy Buddies now though because I am a diehard fan as of this weekend. We made a huge bowl of this on Saturday and it was gone by Monday. It’s no wonder I’ve stopped losing all the baby weight. 😉 This has definitely become a new fam fav in our house!
Butterfinger Muddy Buddies
Recipe adapted from Family Fresh Meals
Makes about 8 cups
Ingredients:
- 1 {12 oz} bag milk chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1/2 cup smooth peanut butter
- 16 mini Butterfinger bars, coarsely crushed
- 8 cups Corn Chex cereal
- 2-3 cups powdered sugar
Directions:
- In a medium saucepan, melt the chocolate chips, peanut butter, and butter together until smooth.
- Pour the chocolate mixture and the Butterfingers over the cereal and mix until the cereal is fully coated.
- Add enough powdered sugar to the cereal mixture so that it’s not sticky anymore.
Just know that you’ve been warned as to how addicting these are. 😉 Enjoy!
