Ingredients
Scale
- 1 box Rice Chex cereal
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk
- ½ cup unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 cup white chocolate chips (or cream cheese chips)
- 1 box instant pistachio pudding mix
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 cups powdered sugar
Instructions
- Place the Rice Chex cereal in a very large mixing bowl. Set aside. You can also use a double-bagged brown paper bag for easier shaking.
- In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk, melted butter, and white chocolate chips.
- Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until the chips are fully melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Stir in the dry pistachio pudding mix until fully combined and smooth.
- Add the vanilla extract and salt. Stir until evenly incorporated.
- Pour the warm pistachio mixture over the cereal. Gently fold and toss until the cereal is evenly coated.
- Add the powdered sugar and toss again until all pieces are fully coated. If using a paper bag, seal and shake gently until coated.
- Spread the muddy buddies in a single layer on parchment paper or a baking sheet.
- Allow to cool for about 30 minutes, or until set.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
Notes
- For easier coating, consider using a double-bagged brown paper bag.
