Cookie Butter Muddy Buddies are a deliciously sweet and crunchy snack made by coating Chex cereal with a melted mixture of cookie butter, white chocolate or cinnamon chips, and shortening. Tossed in powdered sugar, this treat offers a perfect balance of creamy, sweet, and crunchy textures that are irresistible for parties or as an everyday indulgence.

Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup cookie butter
  • 1/4 cup white chocolate chips or cinnamon chips
  • 1–2 tablespoons shortening or butter
  • 4–5 cups Chex cereal
  • 1 cup powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Prepare the baking dish: Grease a baking dish thoroughly and line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
  2. Melt the coating mixture: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the cookie butter, white chocolate or cinnamon chips, and shortening. Heat in 20-second intervals in the microwave, stirring well after each session, until the mixture is fully melted and smooth.
  3. Coat the cereal: Pour the Chex cereal into the melted mixture and gently stir until every piece is thoroughly coated with the creamy mixture.
  4. Coat with powdered sugar: Transfer the coated cereal into a large resealable plastic bag, add the powdered sugar, seal the bag, and shake vigorously until the cereal pieces are evenly covered in powdered sugar.
  5. Set and store: Spread the coated cereal evenly into the prepared baking dish and let it sit for about an hour to dry and set. Once dry, transfer to an airtight container for storage.

Notes

  • Use either white chocolate chips or cinnamon chips depending on your flavor preference.
  • Shortening helps the mixture stay smooth and prevents clumping; butter can be used but may change the texture slightly.
  • Make sure to stir thoroughly during melting to avoid burning the chips or cookie butter.
  • Allowing the mixture to dry completely helps the coating set for the best crunchy texture.
  • This snack can be stored in an airtight container for up to a week.
