While you are busy cooking up a storm in the kitchen, make sure your guests have something delicious to snack on.
Chex Mix is a staple for any holiday side table.
Spice up that boring bowl with Pink Muddy Buddies.
Approximately 16, half-cup servings.
Ingredients
⅓ Cup of each candy melts: Bright Pink, Pink and White
¼ Cup of powdered sugar
1 Tablespoon of Pink Spring Sugar
8 cups of Chex cereal
Directions:
Step 1. Place ⅓ cup of Bright Pink candy melts in a microwave-safe container. Microwave at half power for 30 seconds, remove container and stir. Repeat this process until all candies are melted. (Be sure to check it regularly, candies will burn in the microwave)
Step 2. Add 2 cups of Chex cereal into a bowl. Once candies are melted, pour the melted candy into the bowl with the Chex cereal. Fold until all Chex cereal is coated. (This process may take a few minutes, but the melted candy will coat the Chex cereal)
Step 3. Place ¼ cup of powdered sugar in a gallon ziplock bag and add 1 tablespoon of pink spring sugar. Mix well.
Step 4. Remove candy-coated Chex cereal from the bowl and put into a gallon ziplock bag with powdered sugar and pink spring sugar. Seal the bag and shake well. All candy-coated cereal needs to be covered.
Step 5. Line a baking tray with wax paper, pour the muddy buddies onto the tray evenly.
Step 6. Repeat steps 1-5 with red.
Step 7. Repeat steps 1-5 for the white EXCEPT, leave out step 4. You do not want pink sugar on the white pieces!
Step 8. Allow the muddy buddies to dry completely before combining. Add embellishments (colored candy-coated balls) if desired.
**Store in an airtight container.
