What Kind of Cereal Should I Use?

This mix brings together a short list of ingredients to deliver huge flavor. Each one plays a key role in the texture and taste.

How To Make the Double Chocolate Brownie Puppy Chow Snack Mix

Step 1: Melt and Mix

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips, peanut butter, and unsalted butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth and fully melted. Stir in the vanilla extract once melted.

Step 2: Coat the Cereal

Place the Rice Chex cereal into a large mixing bowl. Pour the melted chocolate mixture over the cereal and gently fold until all pieces are evenly coated.

Step 3: Add the Brownie Mix and Sugar

In a large resealable bag, combine the coated cereal with brownie mix and powdered sugar. Seal the bag and shake vigorously until all the cereal is well coated and no wet spots remain.

Step 4: Cool and Serve

Spread the mix out on a parchment-lined baking sheet and let it cool completely. Once set, transfer it to a bowl for serving or store in an airtight container.
