This summer I've been trying out lots of different snack recipes since my kids are out of school and always wanting a tasty treat. I really liked these Key Lime Pie Muddy Buddies, especially the graham cracker pieces! I did try to double the recipe because this seemed kinda small for my 6 member family, but I wouldn't recommend it because they do start to get a little soggy/soft by the next day. So it's probably best to just make what you'll eat right away.
Ingredients
1 c powdered sugar
4 c of your favorite Chex cereal
About 1 c (about four rectangular sheets) graham crackers broken into pieces similar in size to the Chex (see Note)
1½ c white chocolate chips
2 T unsalted butter
1 t vanilla
2 t lime zest
1 T lime juice
Instructions
- Place powdered sugar in a large zip top plastic bag and set aside.
- Gently toss together the Chex and graham cracker pieces in a large bowl.
- Combine the white chocolate chips, butter, vanilla, lime zest and lime juice in a bowl and gently melt in the microwave or over a double boiler. If doing it in the microwave, use 50% power and stir every 15-30 second until melted. It may look slightly thick and clumpy.
- Pour chocolate mixture over the Chex mixture and gently stir and toss until fully coated, breaking up any large clumps that may form.
- Transfer the cereal mixture to the plastic bag with the powdered sugar seal and toss until fully coated.
- Pour out onto a sheet pan lined with a nonstick baking mat or wax paper and allow to cool and harden.
- Store in an airtight container.
