Main Ingredients
- 5 cups Rice or Corn Chex cereal
- 10 ounces vanilla flavored Almond Bark or vanilla candy coating (such as CandiQuik)
- 3/4 cup yellow cake mix
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- Colored sprinkles, as desired
Instructions
- Prepare the Cereal: Pour 5 cups of Chex cereal into a large bowl, ensuring you use either Rice or Corn Chex for the best texture.
- Melt the Almond Bark: Melt 10 ounces of vanilla flavored Almond Bark according to the package directions, usually by heating in short bursts in the microwave or using a double boiler until smooth.
- Coat the Cereal: Pour the melted Almond Bark over the Chex cereal, stirring and folding gently until all pieces are thoroughly coated. Sprinkle generously with colored sprinkles and fold them in so they stick to the coating.
- Mix Cake Batter Powder: In a large resealable plastic bag or covered container, combine 3/4 cup yellow cake mix with 1/4 cup powdered sugar. Seal and shake well to mix evenly.
- Coat in Cake Mix: Transfer the Almond Bark coated cereal into the bag or container with the cake mix and powdered sugar. Seal tightly and shake vigorously until every piece of cereal is well coated with the dry mixture.
- Finish and Serve: Discard any excess powder from the bag or container. Your Cake Batter Muddy Buddies are now ready to enjoy. Store in an airtight container for up to a week for best freshness.
