Pumpkin Spice Puppy Chow

Pumpkin Spice Puppy Chow is a sweet snack made by coating Chex cereal with melted orange candy chips mixed with pumpkin pie spice, then tossing it in powdered sugar. The result is a crispy, sweet, spiced treat with a festive fall flavor and optional mix-ins like pumpkin candies or Halloween-themed M&Ms for extra texture and color. It's great for parties, snack time, or holiday treats.
