Mint Chocolate Muddy Buddies

Hey everyone I’m back! Sorry for not posting in a while… I’ve been very busy with school. Homework has taken so much time away from me that I really haven’t been able to do anything else! I hope that everyone had a great Thanksgiving. This week I made a new version of my old recipe (Muddy Buddies). I made Mint Chocolate Muddy Buddies this time!

I added M&Ms for some extra yummy flavor and color. The M&Ms were mint too, so this snack was very very minty. 🙂

Chocolate and powdered sugar? Yessir! That is what I call a good start!  You mix all of this up and then you put the chex mix in big zip baggies and shake away until they are covered in chocolate.

Oh boy do I love my Muddy Buddies! Waiting for them to dry is TORTURE because you can’t eat any yet!!!

These colorful and festive Muddy Buddies were great! If you are a fan of mint you will love these! I’m not much of a mint guy, so these weren’t my favorite, but I still liked them. My Dad gobbled almost all of them down because he LOVES mint. In my opinion my original Muddy Buddies were a little better, but hey! These are good too, and that’s just my opinion. I can’t believe how festive they look! Set these with a glass of milk on your fireplace on Christmas Eve and Santa will certainly come to your house!!!

And even a kid can guarantee that Santa will visit your house… Like Me!
