Brownie Batter Muddy Buddies are a quick, no-bake chocolate snack mix made with Chex cereal, melting chocolate, powdered sugar, and brownie mix. Perfect for holidays, parties, or everyday cravings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups melting chocolate (Ghirardelli, Wilton, or Hershey’s Baking Melts)
  • 8 cups rice Chex cereal
  • 3/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 3/4 cup boxed brownie mix

Instructions

  1. In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate according to the package instructions using 30-second intervals, stirring between each.
  2. Once the chocolate is smooth, add the Chex cereal and gently stir with a large spatula to coat evenly.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine powdered sugar and brownie mix.
  4. Transfer the chocolate-coated cereal to a large zip-top bag or a bowl with a lid. Add the powdered mixture and shake or stir to coat evenly.
  5. Serve immediately or chill in the fridge for 15–20 minutes before serving for extra crunch.
  6. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature, or refrigerate for extended freshness.

Notes

  • Use melting chocolate instead of chips for smoother coating and better texture.
  • To make it safer, heat-treat the brownie mix before using.
  • You can add sprinkles, mini marshmallows, or seasonal candies for variation.
  • Make it gluten-free, vegan, or keto with ingredient swaps.
