Mint Truffle Muddy Buddies

I am a muddy buddy fan! There is nothing quicker to whip up for a fun party snack than any version of these tasty treats! Last year I made a Gingerbread Puppy Chow that was crazy good!

So, continuing with my Christmas tradition of muddy buddies, I have made the easiest Mint Truffle variation! This one is probably the easiest flavors to make because it’s only four ingredients. I have also learned that these are a fabulous snack to have on hand for your children to munch on as you grocery shop.

Well, they get a little messy, but my daughter was so quiet & good in the cart the whole time as she snacked on these! Haha. Just sayin’…. Make these on Christmas eve & watch a good old Christmas classic movie & you’ve got yourself a fun night!
