Puppy Chow!!

also known as dog food, Muddy Buddies, Monkey Munch, People Chow, and Doo-Doo Butter Bites

adapted for the UK:

• 250g chocolate chips (dark or milk)
• 1/2 cup of smooth peanut butter (if you don't have US measuring cups just use 2-3 heaped spoonfuls or more if you like peanut butter!)
• knob of butter
• 1 box of Shreddies (500g box)
• icing sugar

note: The ingredients list may seem a bit vague, but really it's one of those things you don't need to be precise about.

Melt the chocolate, peanut butter and butter together in your preferred method.
Dump your box of Shreddies into a large bowl.
Pour the chocolate, peanut butter, and butter mixture over the Shreddies.
Stir with a big spoon until all covered.
Pour in some icing sugar and cover the bowl with cling film and shake! If they aren't completely covered add more icing sugar until they are completely coated!

note: If you have a bowl big enough with a lid use that instead as the cling film can be a bit tricky. Mine wasn't wanting to stick so I held it shut and close to my body and jumped up and down with it! Fun times.

it didn't last the night I had to take a picture before I finished them all!!

I haven't ever heard of anyone in the UK talk about Puppy Chow so I'm making it a personal mission to enlighten everyone! These were a big hit at Mini-Baker's birthday lunch! I found these nifity little snack bags at my grocery store and lucked out as several of them had a puppy on them!! Then I added pink Smarties (UK MnM's) to the bags. Perfect for party bags!! Enjoy!
