Serves: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 9 cups Rice Chex cereal
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup peanut butter
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 cup Cadbury Mini Eggs, crushed
Instructions
- Prepare your workspace by gathering all ingredients and equipment: large mixing bowl, microwave-safe bowl, spatula, and storage container.
- Place Rice Chex cereal in a large mixing bowl, ensuring it's evenly spread and ready for coating.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine white chocolate chips and peanut butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until smooth and fully melted.
- Carefully pour the melted white chocolate and peanut butter mixture over the Chex cereal, gently folding and stirring to ensure every piece is evenly coated.
- Sprinkle powdered sugar over the coated cereal, continuing to gently mix until all pieces are thoroughly covered and white.
- Crush Cadbury Mini Eggs into small pieces using a rolling pin or the back of a spoon.
- Gently fold crushed Cadbury Eggs into the white chocolate-coated cereal mixture.
- Spread the mixture on a parchment-lined baking sheet to cool and allow chocolate to set, approximately 15-20 minutes.
- Once cooled, transfer to a serving bowl or storage container. Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
Tips
- Chocolate Melting Magic: When melting white chocolate and peanut butter, use low, gentle heat and stir frequently to prevent burning. Microwave in short 30-second intervals for best results.
- Coating Technique: Use a spatula or large spoon to gently fold the chocolate mixture over the cereal, ensuring each piece gets an even, delicate coating without crushing the Chex.
- Powdered Sugar Trick: Sift the powdered sugar over the mixture for a more even, less clumpy coating. This helps create that classic, smooth puppy chow texture.
- Cadbury Egg Crush: For the best texture, crush Cadbury Eggs into varied sizes—some fine crumbs and some small chunks—to add interesting texture and bursts of chocolate.
- Cooling and Storage: Allow the puppy chow to cool completely before storing to prevent condensation and maintain its crispy texture. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
