Eggnog Muddy Buddies
Eggnog, what would the Christmas season be without it? These Eggnog Puppy Chow aka Muddy Buddies celebrate the unique flavour of Eggnog with a favourite treat. They store well for up to a week but I doubt they will last that long! These are perfect for Holiday Parties or just a homemade treat around the fireplace. You may find yourself stocking up on Wilton Eggnog candy melts just so you can make it year round. Yum!
Eggnog Puppy Chow/Muddy Buddies
Ingredients:
6 C. Chex Mix Rice cereal
2 10 oz. packages of Wilton Eggnog candy melts (located in the Wilton section at craft stores and major retailers, the seasonal candy melts like the Eggnog flavor are often in the holiday baking area)
4-5 C. powdered sugar
2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp nutmeg
Large plastic bag
Directions:
#1. Pour the (2) packages of eggnog candy melts into a large microwave safe dish and heat in 30 second increments, stirring every 30 seconds until melted. Set the melted candies aside and allow it to cool a few minutes before pouring over the cereal.
#2. Pour the melted chocolate over the Chex mix and stir well completely coating all the cereal.
#3. Add the 4-5 cups of powdered sugar to the Ziploc bag (a paper bag will work too). Add in the 2 tsp of cinnamon and 1 tsp of nutmeg. Mix together.
#4. Slowly pour the cereal into the bag, close and shake well to completely coat the powdered sugar mixture.
Store in an airtight container up to 1 week – we like to keep ours in the fridge.
