If you’re anything like me, you have a sweet tooth! It’s just one of those things that sometimes, you have to give in to 😉 As we all know, sweets can be fattening and unhealthy. As I have been watching what I eat, I was really craving puppy chow. I knew how fattening and unhealthy that was… So I came up with a much healthier alternative. And quite honestly, I think it tastes better than the original.
For this recipe you will need:
- 2 cups of vanilla Chex cereal
- 6 tablespoons reduced fat peanut butter
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 3 tablespoons cocoa powder (or more per preference)
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
Begin by adding your peanut butter and honey into a microwavable bowl and warm in the microwave in 30 second intervals, until honey is completely melted. Add vanilla and cocoa powder. Microwave for another 30 seconds. Pour vanilla Chex cereal into a large mixing bowl and pour peanut butter mixture on top, stirring to coat. Take a large ziplock bag and pour powdered sugar in it and pour cereal mixture into the bag, seal and shake! You can always add more powdered sugar if you want it more coated. And that’s it! You have a delicious, semi healthy snack! I’m telling you, people will not be able to stop eating this tasty treat!
