Description

Fun and Sweet Cake Batter Puppy Chow is a delightful no-bake snack that combines crunchy rice cereal with melted white chocolate, cake mix, powdered sugar, and colorful sprinkles for a festive and tasty treat. Perfect for parties, holidays, or gifting, this easy-to-make sweet snack comes together in just 10 minutes.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 9 cups rice cereal squares (like Rice Chex)
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips or vanilla almond bark
  • ½ cup yellow or vanilla cake mix
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons sprinkles

Optional Add-ins

  • Extra sprinkles
  • Mini marshmallows
  • White chocolate drizzle

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cereal: Place 9 cups of rice cereal squares into a large mixing bowl to get ready for coating.
  2. Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt 1 cup of white chocolate chips or vanilla almond bark in 30-second intervals. Stir well after each interval until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
  3. Combine Chocolate and Cereal: Pour the melted white chocolate over the rice cereal. Gently stir the cereal to coat all pieces evenly with the chocolate.
  4. Coat with Cake Mix and Sugar: In a large zip-top bag, mix together ½ cup cake mix and ½ cup powdered sugar. Add the chocolate-coated cereal to the bag, seal tightly, and shake thoroughly until the cereal is completely coated with the dry mixture.
  5. Spread and Sprinkle: Spread the coated cereal mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. While the coating is still tacky, sprinkle 2 tablespoons of colorful sprinkles evenly over the top to add a festive touch.
  6. Set and Serve: Let the mixture set for 20 minutes to firm up. Once set, transfer the Puppy Chow to a serving bowl or an airtight storage container to keep it fresh and crispy.

Notes

  • Use fresh cereal for the best crunch and texture.
  • Add sprinkles immediately after spreading to ensure they stick properly.
  • If concerned about raw flour in the cake mix, heat-treat it by baking at 350°F (175°C) for 5 minutes before use.
  • Store the Puppy Chow in an airtight container to maintain crispiness.
  • Customize sprinkles based on holidays or themes for a personalized touch.
