It’s time for some more muddy buddy treats! I love these little things, probably too much! Like, they are so yummy to munch on that I eat too many most of the time. And I may or may not eat so many that my tummy aches a little bit….(Who me?!)

This is a Fall variation. It was either Apple or Pumpkin & I went with Apple this time, but don’t be surprised if you see a Pumpkin variation later on down the road. These are a great little after school snack for my kids to munch on while I cook dinner, but that’s like eating dessert before dinner, so I guess that makes me a bad mom… or a cool mom! Haha. Enjoy!

12 Servings

Ingredients

▢ 12 oz (340 g) bag white chocolate chips
▢ 1 Tbsp shortening or coconut oil, for thinning the chocolate
▢ 5-6 cups (150-180 g) Apple Cinnamon Chex Cereal
▢ 7 oz (198 g) box Jiffy Apple Cinnamon Muffin Mix, (about 1 ¼ cups)
▢ ¼ cup (30 g) powdered sugar
▢ 1 tsp ground cinnamon
▢ ⅛ tsp ground nutmeg

Instructions

Melt white chocolate chips with shortening in a LARGE bowl in the microwave on HALF POWER for 60 seconds. Stir. Repeat until melted. (Mine took 2 minutes.)
Add the Chex cereal to the melted chips & fold gently.
In a gallon size zip-top bag combine, muffin mix, powdered sugar, cinnamon & nutmeg. Add the white chocolate coated cereal, zip the bag shut & shake until everything is covered with the dry mixture.
Snack away!!!

It looks like Apple Cinnamon Chex has been discontinued. What do you suggest substituting?:)

I would just use regular Chex. You can always bump up the spices a little bit or you could try adding an apple cider drink mix packet to boost the flavor. The apple cider packet may make it extra sticky though.

I love collecting all sorts of apple recipes for this time of year. I don’t have a recipe like this. I’m so excited to try it! I love muddy buddies, and I love apple and cinnamon. It’s got to be delicious. Thanks so much for sharing. Enjoy your weekend!

These look fantastic!!
I’ve never made something like these, and I’d probably eat half of them while making….. 🙂

Okay this looks incredible!!

Yum, this looks so good. I tried making chocolate and pumpkin muddy buddies last week and they did not turn out, but I love that you used a muffin mix to get the apple flavor. Can’t wait to try these!

Oh my gosh! These look amazing! Adding chex to my shopping list!

Fun recipe! I pinned it to my Fall Recipes board. 🙂

You can’t go wrong with muddy buddies! This looks like a yummy variation.
