Game Day Puppy Chow Snack Mix with Peanut Butter Drizzle

  • Author: Nadia
  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 8-10 cups 1x

Description

A simple, 5-ingredient no-bake snack mix featuring Chex cereal coated in chocolate and peanut butter, tossed in powdered sugar, and finished with a sweet chocolate drizzle.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 cups Chex cereal (mix of Rice and Corn Chex)
  • 1 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup smooth peanut butter
  • 1 cup confectioners’ sugar (powdered sugar)
  • 1/4 cup milk chocolate chips (for drizzle)

Instructions

  1. Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the mini semi-sweet chocolate chips and peanut butter.
  3. Microwave on high for 1 minute, then stir well. If not fully melted, microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each one, until smooth. Let cool slightly.
  4. Pour the Chex cereal into the bowl with the chocolate-peanut butter mixture. Gently fold with a spatula until every piece is coated.
  5. Transfer half of the coated cereal to a large ziplock bag. Add 1/2 cup of powdered sugar, seal, and shake vigorously for 30 seconds until evenly dusted. Repeat with the remaining cereal and sugar.
  6. Pour the coated cereal onto the prepared baking sheets and spread out in a single layer to cool.
  7. Melt the 1/4 cup of chocolate chips for the drizzle in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Let cool for 1 minute.
  8. Place the melted drizzle chocolate in a small ziplock bag and snip off a tiny corner.
  9. Drizzle the chocolate over the cooled mix in a zigzag pattern.
  10. Let sit for 10-15 minutes until the drizzle sets, then break into clusters and serve.

Notes

Ensure chocolate is not overheated to prevent seizing. Sift powdered sugar if clumpy. Use parchment paper, not wax paper, to prevent sticking. For a salty-sweet balance, add a pinch of flaky sea salt after drizzling. Can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week or frozen for up to 3 months.
