WOW! Valentine’s Day is less than a month away. I love adorable Valentine’s day treats like these Strawberry Heart Fruit Kabobs, or these Valentine’s Day Popcorn Balls. Today I am going to be sharing this super simple and delicious Valentine Puppy Chow I made.
Have you ever made puppy chow before? Some people call it muddy buddies. There are all types of muddy buddies, from traditional to chocolate mint. What is your favorite kind of muddy buddies?
What You Need for This Recipe:
Rice Cereal
Milk Chocolate Chips
White Chocolate Chips
Pink Velvet Cake Mix (or strawberry)
Powdered Sugar
Pink and Red M&Ms
I packed it up in these little Valentine’s Day themed bags so that we could each snack on this during our family movie night. They would also be cute to hand out for Valentine’s Day. These muddy buddies would look super cute in these Valentine bags. You could also add in heart shaped sprinkles for a little extra Valentine’s Day flair.

Ingredients
- 6 cups rice cereal mix divided
- 1/2 cup milk chocolate melted
- 1/2 cup white chocolate melted
- 1 cup pink velvet cake mix
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- pink and red m&m's
Instructions
-
Place 3 cups of cereal in each bowl.

Add your pink velvet cake mix to one ziploc bag, then put the powdered sugar in a separate bag.
-
Pour melted milk chocolate over the cereal in one bowl and mix well.
-
Put this cereal in the pink velvet cake mix bag.
-
Shake well.
-
Pour the white chocolate over the other cereal and mix well.
-
Put this cereal in the powdered sugar bag.
-
Shake well.
-
Pour them both out onto a cookie sheet to let dry and harden.
-
Place in a big bowl and add the m&m's.
-
Mix together well and serve.
Update: I changed it from red velvet cake mix to pink velvet cake mix. It makes for a prettier red/pink color. If you can’t find pink velvet, mix the red velvet and powdered sugar together in one bag. Then have another bag with just powdered sugar in it. Next, put the white chocolate cereal in the bag with just the powdered sugar, and the milk chocolate cereal in the bag with the red velvet/powdered sugar mixture. Then just continue with the rest of the instructions. Or you could sub out for Strawberry cake mix for a fun flavor change. Let me know if you have any questions or if you try this out.
