Puppy Chow con Pistachos

 

Pistachio Puppy Chow has always been one of my favorite snacks since I was a child. I found out about it at a school event and have enjoyed it ever since. I remembered the simple recipe from high school because I used to make it often. Lately, I started tasting different types of Puppy Chow.

List of Ingredients:

• 1 box of Rice Chex cereal (12 ounces)
• 1 can of sweet condensed milk (14 oz)
• 1/2 cup of butter, melted
• 1 cup of white chocolate or cream cheese chips
• 1 package of instant pistachio pudding mix (3.4 ounces)
• 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla
• 1/2 teaspoon of salt
• 2 cups of powdered sugar

How to Make Pistachio Puppy Chow:

1. Put the cereal in a large bowl or a folded paper bag, and set it aside.
2. In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine sweetened condensed milk, butter, and chocolate chips.
3. Microwave the mixture for 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until fully melted and smooth.
4. Add the pudding mix, vanilla, and salt, stirring until combined.
5. Pour the pudding mixture over the cereal and stir until all pieces are evenly coated.
6. Sprinkle powdered sugar over the mixture and stir again until everything is coated.
7. Allow the snack to cool before storing it in an airtight container. For best results, enjoy within the first couple of days!
