Cookies and Cream Muddy Buddies are a delightful sweet snack combining crispy rice chex cereal coated in two types of melted chocolate and dusted with crushed Oreo cookies and powdered sugar. This treat offers a crunchy, chocolatey, and creamy flavor perfect for parties, snack time, or holiday gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale

Cereal

  • 8 cups rice chex cereal

Chocolate

  • 1 ⅓ cups semi sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 ⅓ cups white chocolate chips

Mix-ins

  • 14 Oreos (crushed)
  • 1 cup powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Divide the cereal: Place 4 cups of rice chex cereal into each of two separate bowls to prepare for separate chocolate coatings.
  2. Crush the Oreos: Use a food processor or place Oreos in a sealed bag and crush them into fine dust using a rolling pin for an even coating.
  3. Prepare coating bags: Take two gallon-sized resealable bags and put half of the crushed Oreo dust and ½ cup of powdered sugar into each bag, mixing them together.
  4. Melt semi-sweet chocolate: Melt the semi sweet chocolate chips gently until smooth, then pour over one bowl of rice chex cereal. Stir gently to coat the cereal evenly.
  5. Melt white chocolate: Similarly, melt white chocolate chips until smooth. Pour over the second bowl of rice chex cereal and stir gently to combine.
  6. Combine coated cereal with Oreo mixture: Add the semi sweet chocolate coated cereal to one of the prepared bags containing Oreo dust and powdered sugar. Seal and shake well until evenly coated. Repeat with the white chocolate coated cereal and the other bag.
  7. Mix and serve: Pour both flavored chex mixtures into a large bowl, combine gently, and serve immediately or store for later snacking.

Notes

  • Be careful when melting chocolate to avoid burning; use low heat or a double boiler.
  • For a more intense chocolate flavor, consider adding a pinch of cocoa powder to the powdered sugar mixture.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days to maintain freshness.
  • You can substitute gluten-free Oreos to make this recipe gluten-free.
  • This snack is best consumed within a day or two to keep the cereal crisp.
