Colorful Muddy Buddies

These muddy buddies worked so perfectly for our Magical Unicorn Birthday Party! I made a bunch of colors and used them to make Unicorn Chex Mix that is to DIE for! Seriously, our family cannot get enough of it!

You will need:
4 cups Chex Cereal
1 1/2 cups Powdered Sugar
4 cups Candy Melts (1 cup per color) 

  • Cover a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  • Melt 1 cup of candy melts in a medium bowl in the microwave. Melt in 30s intervals, stirring often. Be careful not to overheat or allow moisture into the candy melts as they will seize.
  • Add 1 cup of chex cereal to the candy melts and gently stir until evenly coated.

  • Add 1/4 cup of powdered sugar to a zip lock bag.

  • Add candy coated chex into the bag and shake until evenly coated. Sprinkle a little extra sugar if needed. Break up large pieces.

  • Lay on baking sheet until dry. Serve as is or make a tasty Unicorn Chex Mix.
