Puppy Chow
Puppy Chow is another family favorite that comes straight off the cereal box. There’s no need to mess with this classic. It combines chocolate, peanut butter, and powdered sugar. What more could you ask for? And, as an added bonus, it’s so easy to throw together and nobody can keep their hand out of the bowl!
I recommend using rice or corn chex for this recipe. They seem to be more airy. I’ve made Puppy Chow with wheat chex and it tastes fine, it’s just a bit more dense.

Recipe from Chex
I am Jen the Beantown Baker. Engineer by day and baking maven by night. Hubby serves as my #1 fan and official taste tester. We got hitched back in 2006. Barefoot. In the sand. With the waves crashing behind us. It was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. 
Yum, this looks fabulous! I used to always make stuff like this for quick breakfasts (and pour them into muffin cups) but I’ve sort of forgotten. I need to do that again!
Adding this to long list of things to make. Scott’s favorite food of all time is quiche, so this probably gets bumped to the top!
Perfect combination 🙂
Yes I’ve done that with a muffin pan too. Works great for lunches during the week.
Steph – I hope Scott enjoys. OR, you guys can come here and I’ll make it for him 😉
This looks sooo good. Nice for a Sunday breakfast!
