Thin Mint Muddy Buddies

I was in the middle of preparing my Pinterest post for tomorrow and I was thinking of how much I really want to make the muddy buddies I'll share {tomorrow}. I was brainstorming the different variations I could make...the first one that I thought of was Snickers and then it dawned on me....THIN MINTS! Almost had a Obi-Wan/Luke Skywalker moment, except Obi-Wan was telling me "Use the Thin Mints, Sarah!"

I used those Thin Mints..


Well..okay, not all of them. I only have one box left and I put half a sleeve in the freezer for later. Now on to how you make these yummy muddy buddies!

(Print)
What you need:
  • 3/4 Thin Mints in one box (a sleeve and a half)
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • Chocolate Candiquik (I used half a package)
  • 6 cups Chex cereal
Directions:

Crush Thin Mints with a rolling pin, hands, food processor, canned veggies, whatever you have in your cabinet! It helps if they are in a Ziploc bag first.

Add powdered sugar to the bag. Shake to combine.

Place your cereal in a large bowl.

Melt chocolate according to package directions.

Pour over your cereal and toss until coated.

Pour cereal into Ziploc bag with cookies and sugar.
SHAKE SHAKE SHAKE!!

And then devour :)
P.S. These are great if you have peanut allergies in your family, like we do!
P.P.S. I usually call these puppy chow. NOM.
