Strawberry Muddy Buddies
Report
Bursting with flavor, these Strawberry Muddy Buddies are an easy, sweet Chex mix. This recipe combines the crunch of Chex cereal tossed in melted chocolate then all coated in a sweet freeze-dried strawberries and powdered sugar mixture.

Ingredients
- 6 cups Chex cereal any variety
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 ounce freeze-dried strawberries
- ¾ cup dark chocolate chips
- 3 tablespoons butter
Instructions
- Add the Chex cereal a large mixing bowl.
- Place the powdered sugar in a medium bowl and set aside.
- Add the freeze-dried strawberries to a food processor or blender and pulse or blend until strawberry pieces are fine crumbs. Then add it to the strawberry powder to the powdered sugar and toss to combine.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, add the chocolate chips and butter and heat in 15-second increments, stirring in between each. Be very careful not to overheat or the chocolate will seize and thicken. You should only have to heat it 3 or 4 times.
- Pour the melted chocolate over the cereal and gently stir to coat completely.
- Sprinkle the strawberry powdered sugar over the coated cereal in batches, stirring very carefully between each addition.
Notes
- Rice chex cereal is my favorite but you can use any combination you'd like.
- Stir in a ½ cup of peanut butter to the chocolate mixture before adding the cereal.
- Add , mini marshmallows, mini chocolate chips and peanuts.
- Refrigerate until ready to serve if desired.
- Store in an airtight container or plastic baggie with the air pressed out for up to a week.
- Freeze for up to 2 months.
