This No-Bake Valentine's Day Muddy Buddy Chex Mix is made with white chocolate, peanut butter, butter, M&M's, chocolate chips and sprinkles.
VALENTINE'S DAY MUDDY BUDDY CHEX MIX
I am finally sharing a delicious Muddy Buddy (or 'White Trash' as my Mom used to call it back in the day) recipe on the The Country Cook.
CAN I SWITCH THIS UP FOR DIFFERENT HOLIDAYS?
- Of course! This particular recipe is going to use peanut butter and white chocolate before we coat the Chex in powdered sugar. However, you could go with the classic semi-sweet chocolate chips if you like. This is one of my favorite combos of flavor though.
- What you add in is totally up to you. I love the Valentine's Day edition M&M's as well as pink and red sprinkles and a small handful of mini chocolate chips. I didn't put a measurement for those because I figured you could throw in as much or as little as you like. But you can do green M&M's and sprinkles for Saint Patrick's Day, etc.
INGREDIENTS NEEDED: (FULL RECIPE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE POST)
Rice Chex™ cereal
white chocolate baking chips
peanut butter
butter or margarine
powdered sugar
red, white and pink M&M's
sprinkles
mini chocolate chips
HOW TO MAKE VALENTINE'S DAY MUDDY BUDDY CHEX MIX:
Melt chocolate chips, peanut butter, and butter together in the microwave for around 45 seconds or until warm and liquid.
Combine cereal and white chocolate mixture in a large mixing bowl, and turn gently until evenly coated.
Put half of your snack mix in a large zip top bag with powdered sugar, seal, and shake. Set aside. With the remaining half, mix in M&M’s and sprinkles. Pour both halves together onto a large baking sheet or in a large bowl, toss slightly to blend, and serve as desired.
Then dig in and enjoy!

Just made this to send to my daughter in college for Valentine’s Day. It’s tastes delicious but I did need to add at least 2 more cups of cereal. Two cups of cereal was not enough. Thank you so
Much for the recipe.
Patty Curry
On the Valentineschex mix, do you add the mini choc.chips with the sprinkles?
Teresa
This looks awesome. What kind of Chex did you use, rice, wheat, corn? Also 2 cups doesn't sound like a lot of cereal for all that coating???
Brandie @ The Country Cook
The coating isn’t much at all and this makes a smaller amount. You can certainly double to make a big batch. 🙂
Joan
Is 2 cups correct?
Georgia Perkins
Wow! All of the recipes look delicious! Thank you Brandi for all the wonderful recipes! Hope you and everyone at your home have a wonderful Valentines Day!!????
