Author: Dorothy Kern

Ingredients

  • 7 cups Vanilla Chex Mix or Cinnamon Chex
  • 1 cup chopped pecans
  • 1/2 cup canned vanilla frosting
  • 1 packet Duncan Hines Cinnamon Roll Frosting Creations
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips or white candy melts
  • 1-2 cups powdered sugar

Instructions

  • Place Chex and pecans in a large bowl. Place 1 cup powdered sugar in a large resealable plastic bag.
  • Place frosting in a medium bowl and stir in Frosting Creations packet. Add white chocolate chips or melts and microwave in 20 second increments, stirring int between, until melted and smooth. Pour over Chex/Pecans and use two spoons or your hands to stir.
  • Pour coated cereal into the plastic bag with powdered sugar and seal. Shake to coat. Break up large frosting chunks, reseal bag, and shake again.
  • If you are serving the Muddy Buddies immediately, one turn in the powdered sugar is fine. If you will be letting it sit, the first coat of powdered sugar might start to dissolve, so coat again as in step 3 with the second cup of powdered sugar.
