Ingredients

  • 6 cups of Rice Chex cereal
  • 12 ounces of white chocolate candy melts
  • 1 tsp butter extract
  • 1 cup of french vanilla cake mix
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/4 cup of sprinkles; use as much as desired 🙂

Instructions

  • Pour cereal into a large gallon zip-lock bag. In a microwavable bag, melt chocolate and butter extract for 1 minute, then stir until melted.
  • Pour melted chocolate into bag and shake until cereal is covered in chocolate mixture. Add sprinkles and shake.
  • Add in cake mix and powdered sugar and shake until completely coated. Add more sprinkles if you would like! In my option, you can never have too many sprinkles in/on anything.
  • Transfer covered muddy buddies into cookie sheet and discard the excess powder. *An easier way to discard powder is to place a cooling rack on the cookie sheet before placing muddy buddies on them. Enjoy!
