Preparation

  • In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips, peanut butter, and butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until melted and smooth.
  • Stir in the vanilla extract.
  • In a large bowl, add the Rice Chex cereal and pour the chocolate mixture over it. Gently stir until the cereal is evenly coated.

  • Spread the puppy chow on a baking sheet to cool.
  • Serve in a bowl and enjoy!

Notes

For added flavor, consider adding a pinch of salt to the chocolate mixture. You can substitute regular chocolate chips with dark or white chocolate chips for different flavor experiences. Feel free to add in extras like pretzels, nuts, or M&Ms for added variety. To keep your Puppy Chow fresh, store it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks, or freeze it in a well-sealed container.
