Ingredients
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup peanut butter divided
- 1/4 cup butter divided
- 1 teaspoon vanilla divided
- 9 cups Chex cereal divided
- 2 cups powdered sugar divided
- 1 cup Candy Corn
- Candy Eyes
Instructions
- Divide the 9 cups Chex cereal evenly between two large bowls, with 4 1/2 cups in each bowl.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 1/4 cup chocolate chips, 1/4 cup peanut butter, 2 tablespoons butter, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Microwave the mixture for 30 seconds. Stir well, then continue microwaving in 15–30 second intervals, stirring after each interval, until completely melted and smooth. Do not overheat.
- Pour the chocolate mixture over one bowl of 4 1/2 cups Chex cereal. Gently fold with a spatula until the cereal is evenly coated.
- Place 1 cup powdered sugar in a large gallon-size zip-top bag. Add the chocolate-coated cereal, seal the bag, and gently shake until the cereal is evenly coated with powdered sugar.
- Repeat the process with the remaining 1/2 cup white chocolate chips, 1/4 cup peanut butter, 2 tablespoons butter, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract. Microwave in short intervals, stirring between each, until smooth.
- Pour the white chocolate mixture over the remaining 4 1/2 cups Chex cereal and gently fold until evenly coated.
- Place the remaining 1 cup powdered sugar in a clean gallon-size zip-top bag. Add the white chocolate-coated cereal, seal, and shake gently until evenly coated.
- Spread both puppy chow mixtures onto a large baking sheet and allow them to cool completely.
- Once cooled, gently combine the two puppy chow mixtures. Add 1 cup candy corn and candy eyes, then gently toss to distribute them evenly.
- Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature.
