Snickerdoodle Puppy Chow is a sweet and crunchy snack mix featuring Chex cereal coated in a cinnamon and white chocolate blend, then dusted with powdered sugar for a delightful treat that’s perfect for parties, movie nights, or gifting.

Ingredients

Scale

Cereal Mix

  • 6 cups Chex cereal (or 4 cups Chex and 2 cups Cinnamon Toast Crunch)

Coating

  • 12 oz. white chocolate chips
  • 3 tsp cinnamon, divided
  • 1 cup powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Melt the White Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate chips by heating them in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until smooth and fully melted.
  2. Mix Cinnamon with Chocolate: Stir 2 teaspoons of cinnamon into the melted white chocolate to infuse the coating with the signature snickerdoodle flavor.
  3. Combine Cereal and Chocolate: Place the Chex cereal in a large mixing bowl, then pour the cinnamon-white chocolate mixture over the cereal. Gently fold and stir until every piece is evenly coated with the chocolate mixture.
  4. Prepare Powdered Sugar Mix: In a separate large zip-top bag or bowl, combine the powdered sugar and the remaining 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, mixing well to distribute the cinnamon evenly throughout the sugar.
  5. Coat the Cereal: Transfer the chocolate-coated cereal into the powdered sugar and cinnamon mixture. Seal the bag or cover the bowl and shake it thoroughly until all the pieces are well coated with the sweet, cinnamon sugar layer.
  6. Cool and Set: Spread the coated cereal on a parchment-lined baking sheet and allow it to cool and set completely at room temperature, approximately 30 minutes, to ensure the chocolate hardens and the pieces remain crisp.

Notes

  • You can substitute half the Chex cereal with Cinnamon Toast Crunch for added cinnamon flavor and texture variation.
  • Make sure the white chocolate chips are fully melted and smooth to prevent clumps in the coating.
  • Store Puppy Chow in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week to maintain freshness.
  • This snack is great for gifting—package in festive bags or jars for holidays or gatherings.
