Cookies and Cream Muddy Buddies are a delicious twist on the classic muddy buddies snack, also known as puppy chow. Here’s a simple recipe to make them:

Ingredients:

• 6 cups rice Chex cereal

• 1 1/2 cups crushed chocolate sandwich cookies (like Oreos), divided
• 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar

• In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate chips and butter together in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth.
• Stir in the vanilla extract into the melted white chocolate mixture.
• Pour the melted white chocolate mixture over the Chex cereal and gently stir until all the cereal is evenly coated.
• Add 1 cup of crushed chocolate sandwich cookies to the cereal mixture and gently stir to distribute them evenly.
• In a large zip-top bag, add the powdered sugar and remaining 1/2 cup of crushed chocolate sandwich cookies. Seal the bag and shake to mix the powdered sugar and cookies.
• Pour the coated cereal mixture into the bag with the powdered sugar and cookies. Seal the bag and shake until all the cereal pieces are coated with the powdered sugar mixture.
