Football Puppy Chow

Ingredients:

GREEN PUPPY CHOW

  • 4 cups chex cereal
  • 1 cup green candy melts 
  • 1/2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 3/4 cup powdered sugar

BROWN PUPPY CHOW

  • 4 cups chex cereal
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • 1/2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 3/4 cup powdered sugar

ADD INS

  • Football almonds - whole almonds and small batch of royal icing:
    • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
    • 1/2 tsp meringue powder
    • 1/2 tbsp water
  • White m&ms

Directions:



TO MAKE THE ROYAL ICING

  1. Combine the powdered sugar, meringue powder, and water in a mixing bowl and mix until the icing has a matte appearance, about 2 minutes. You may need to add a little more water to get the right consistency. You don’t want the icing to be runny, but have a thicker consistency, but you don’t want it to be too thick where you can’t get it out of the squeeze bottle. Transfer to a squeeze bottle or ziploc bag with one corner cut off.
  2. On each almond draw the center football stripe.
  3. Allow the royal icing to harden, 10-15 minutes before adding the football stitches.
  4. Draw 3 stitches on each almond.
  5. Allow the royal icing to harden completely before adding the footballs to the puppy chow.

GREEN PUPPY CHOW

  1. Measure out 4 cups of chex cereal into a gallon plastic bag.
  2. Combine the green candy melts, vegetable oil, and peanut butter in a pot over low heat on the stove. Occasionally stir with a spatula until the chocolate is smooth and melted.
  3. Pour the melted chocolate into the plastic bag. Zip it shut and shake to evenly coat the cereal with chocolate.
  4. Add 3/4 cup powdered sugar to the bag, zip, and shake again. If the puppy chow is too sticky, add more powdered sugar 1/4 cup at a time.
  5. Set aside.

BROWN PUPPY CHOW
