Very yummy. I used Life ceral as here they dont seel Chex. -just a funny note I put it in a ziplock bag I had used and washed previously. Well apparently there was a hole in it and when I gave it a big squish a whole bunch of chocolate squished out as well all over my hads! So make sure the bag has no holes! lol

Puppy Chow, as we've always called it, is highly addictive. I've always found the adults eat way more than the kiddos! This was copied straight from the Chex website with one important omission: "Pour mixture over cereal, stirring until evenly coated. Pour into 2-gallon resealable food-storage plastic bag." For anyone just starting out in the kitchen, the directions as currently posted could be confusing since they do not detail what to do with the cereal.

This is NOT just for little kids, but for us big kids too! I think it's addictive, and am thankful it makes a huge batch. I make it by substituting the chocolate chips and peanut butter with a jar of Nutella. Try it!

Yummy! Just one thing- there should definatly be a disclaimer listed- THIS IS NOT A NEAT THING TO MAKE!! Every surface in my kitchen had chocolate or powdered sugar on it by the time I was done!! I have never made anything so MESSY! I mixed all the cereal with the chocolate mixture at once but added small amounts to the ziplock baggie (a big one) at a time. Next time I will mix half the cereal at a time with the chocolate. I like the trash bag idea someone else suggested!!! I definatly used more then a cup and half of powdered sugar but I didn't measure it- just sprinkled it in. Oh, it's all worth it when you taste them though!!
