Easter Carrot Muddy Buddies
Large Party Size Recipe
*6 cups Rice Chex, use 3 bowls with 2 cups rice Chex each
*6 cups Corn Chex, add to above bowls 2 cups corn Chex
First Bowl:
Chocolate Coating:
*1 cup Dark Chocolate Chips or Semi-Sweet
*3 and 1/2 tablespoons Butter
*3/4 cup Almond Butter
*1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
Melt dark chocolate chips in a double boiler on medium-low heat. Then add butter, Almond butter and vanilla. Stir until melted.
Second Bowl:
Orange Candy-Coated Chex Mix
*10 ounces Pink Candy Melts, Wilton
*1/8 teaspoon Coconut Oil
Melt in the microwave in 30 second increments stirring in-between increments until melted. Then pour over Chex cereal.
Third Bowl:
Yellow Candy-Coated Chex Mix
*10-ounces Yellow Candy Melts, Wilton
*1/8 teaspoon Coconut Oil
Melt in the microwave in 30 second increments stirring in-between increments until melted. Then pour over Chex cereal.
Coating:
*3 cups Powdered Sugar
Add Ins:
*1/4 to 1/2 cup M&M’s Chocolate Candy, I used only the orange ones
*1 package 7.44-ounces Key Lime Pie M&M’s, use as many as desired
*8 Chocolate/Candy Melt Carrots, See Here for recipe
*1 package 8-ounce M&M’s Honey Graham
Instructions:
*3 gallon sized resealable bags
After adding the Chex Cereals to 3 different bowls, pour over a different coating to each bowl. Stir each bowl carefully so not to crush the Chex cereal, stir until all pieces are coated.
I like to use (3) 1 gallon sized bags, add 1 cup of the powdered sugar to each bag. Then add wet chocolate coated Chex mixture to first bag, wet orange coated Chex mixture second bag, wet yellow Chex coating mixture third bag. Seal each bag and shake each bag individually until all pieces are coated with powdered sugar. Seal up bags and shake until mixtures are totally coated.
*
Then pour back all 3 bags of muddy buddies into extra-large mixing bowl toss together.
Add in orange plain M&M’s, key lime pie M&M’s, Candy Carrots and Honey Graham M&M’s. Serve on serving tray or as desired. Store in an airtight container up to a week.
Enjoy!
