Muddy Buddies

General Mills sent us a big box for Christmas with all of the things we needed to make a long-time holiday treat, Muddy Buddies.

The funny thing is that I used to make these all the time.  I guess they just fell off my radar, as recipes tend to do over time.  We bagged *most of*  them up and took them in to the front office staffs at our schools!

As for the rest, well we enjoyed those at home.  :-)

Muddy Buddies (Gluten Free)

9 cups Rice Chex
1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1/4 cup butter
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar

  • Place cereal in large mixing bowl; set aside.
  • Place chocolate chips, peanut butter and butter uncovered into microwavable bowl. Microwave 1 minute on High. Stir.  Microwave about 30 seconds longer or until mixture can be stirred smooth; stir in vanilla.
  • Pour mixture over cereal, stirring until evenly coated. Pour into 2-gallon resealable food-storage plastic bag.  (I split mine between two 1-gallon bags)
  • Pour powdered sugar into bag with cereal mixture. Seal bag. Shake until well coated. Spread on parchment paper to cool. Store in airtight container in refrigerator.

You can find more Chex recipes HERE.  Thank you General Mills for always sending the best packages!

I hope that you are continuing to enjoy this holiday season.  We’ve been taking it nice and slow since getting back from Savannah.

This was the perfect occasion because my sister in law… Read More

A Savannah Christmas {Antiquing and The Grey}

It was such a treat to spend an entire afternoon antiquing with Mother and Whit.  It’s something we’ve always loved but, sadly, haven’t made the time for recently.  My very favorite Savannah haunt is the Habersham Antique Market.  I’ve talked about them a few times on the blog but I think their prices are fair… Read More
