Here Is a Complete recipe :

Ingredients:

5 cups Chex cereal (rice or corn)

1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

1/2 cup creamy peanut butter

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 1/2 cups powdered sugar

1 sleeve of Thin Mint cookies (crushed)

Step 1: Melt Chocolate and Peanut Butter

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and peanut butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until melted and smooth. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 2: Coat Cereal

Pour the melted chocolate mixture over the Chex cereal in a large mixing bowl. Gently fold until all the cereal is evenly coated.

Step 3: Add Crushed Thin Mint Cookies

Fold in the crushed Thin Mint cookies until they are distributed throughout the mixture.

Step 4: Coat with Powdered Sugar

Transfer the coated cereal mixture into a large resealable plastic bag. Add the powdered sugar to the bag, seal it tightly, and shake vigorously until the cereal is well coated with sugar.

Step 5: Spread and Cool

Spread the Thin Mint Muddy Buddies onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Allow them to cool and set for about 30 minutes.

Chef's Advice:

For an extra burst of mint flavor, you can add a few drops of peppermint extract to the melted chocolate mixture before coating the cereal. Be cautious with the amount, as peppermint extract can be quite potent.

Time Required: Approximately 15 minutes to prepare ingredients and melt chocolate, plus 30 minutes for cooling and setting.

Enjoy your delicious Thin Mint Muddy Buddies as a snack or dessert!
