Description

These Puppy Chow Truffles take everything you love about the classic Muddy Buddies and turn it into a creamy, chocolatey truffle! With a smooth peanut butter filling, coated in crushed Chex cereal and powdered sugar, these no-bake treats are easy to make and irresistibly delicious.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups powdered sugar (divided)
  • 2 cups Rice Chex cereal, crushed into fine crumbs

Instructions

1. Make the Truffle Filling:

  • In a microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate chips, peanut butter, and butter in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.
  • Stir in vanilla extract and salt.
  • Let the mixture cool slightly, then refrigerate for about 1 hour until firm enough to scoop.

2. Form the Truffles:

  • Scoop small portions (about 1 tablespoon each) and roll into smooth balls.
  • Place on a parchment-lined tray and freeze for 15-20 minutes until firm.

3. Coat the Truffles:

  • In a shallow dish, mix 1½ cups powdered sugar with crushed Chex cereal.
  • Roll each truffle in the coating mixture until fully covered.

4. Serve & Enjoy!

  • Keep chilled until ready to serve. These truffles are best cold for the perfect texture!

Notes

  • Extra Crunch? Roll the truffles in crushed Chex before coating them in powdered sugar for added texture.
  • Make It Sweeter: Add 1-2 tablespoons of honey or maple syrup to the chocolate mixture for extra sweetness.
  • Storage: Keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week or freeze for up to 3 months.
