The Making of the S’mores Muddy Buddies Recipe

Making s’mores muddy buddies is incredibly easy and requires just a few steps to create a delicious snack everyone will love. Start by melting 1/2 cup of peanut butter, 1 cup of Hershey’s milk chocolate chips (or chopped Hershey bars), and 1/4 cup of butter in a large bowl. You can do this in the microwave for 1 minute, stirring until smooth. If necessary, microwave for an additional 30 seconds until the mixture is fully melted and creamy. The combination of peanut butter and chocolate adds a rich, indulgent flavor to the muddy buddies, reminiscent of classic s’mores.

Once the chocolate mixture is ready, pour in 7 cups of rice squares cereal, 1 cup of miniature marshmallows, and 1 cup of crumbled graham cracker pieces. Use a large spatula to gently mix and coat the cereal with the chocolatey goodness. For the final touch, sprinkle 1 cup of powdered sugar over the cereal and toss to coat. You can do this in the bowl or transfer the mixture to a zip-top bag, seal it, and shake until everything is evenly covered in the powdered sugar. In just a few minutes, you’ll have a sweet, crunchy treat that captures all the flavors of s’mores without the campfire!
