Double Peanut Butter Muddy Buddies

Thank you General Mills for sponsoring this post. All thoughts and options are my own.

Guys we are pretty pumped with the NEW Peanut Butter Chex available at Walmart. Izzy and I decided to create Double Peanut Butter Muddy Buddies as a fun beach snack. We found this delicious and easy recipe on Chex.com.

Izzy had a blast helping me make our beach snack. As a teacher mom, I see this as another great opportunity for Izzy to work on her math skills with measuring. She also was exposed to science as we discussed and she witnessed the ingredients melting and hardening. Scroll through to check out my little chef helping me to make a childhood favorite of mine, Muddy Buddies, for the first time.

Ingredients

5 cups Peanut Butter Chex™ cereal

4 cups Chocolate Chex™ cereal

1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

In 1-quart microwavable bowl, microwave chocolate chips, peanut butter and butter uncovered on High 1 minute; stir. Microwave about 30 seconds longer or until mixture can be stirred smooth.
