Creating a silky smooth chocolate base starts with gentle heating. Combine chocolate chips, peanut butter, and butter in a microwave-safe bowl.

Gently pour the molten chocolate blend over crisp Rice Chex. Use soft folding motions to ensure every single piece gets a delicious chocolate embrace. Each morsel should glisten with rich chocolate coverage.

Addictive Brownie Puppy Chow Recipe
- Total Time: 15 minutes
- Yield: 11 1x
Description
Chocolate Passion Puppy Chow blends rich cocoa with powdered sugar for a delightful snack. Crisp cereal squares coated in sweet chocolate create an irresistible treat you’ll devour in moments.
Ingredients
- 6 cups (1.42 l / 48 fl oz) rice chex cereal
- 1 cup (237 ml / 8 fl oz) semi-sweet chocolate chips
- ½ cup (120 ml / 4 fl oz) creamy peanut butter
- ¼ cup (57 g / 2 oz) unsalted butter
- 1 cup (237 ml / 8 fl oz) brownie mix (store-bought or homemade, unsweetened)
- ½ cup (60 g / 2.1 oz) powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Chocolate Fusion: Melt chocolate chips, peanut butter, and butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in short intervals, stirring until smooth. Blend in vanilla extract for depth of flavor.
- Cereal Coating: Drizzle the molten chocolate mixture over Rice Chex cereal in a large mixing bowl. Gently fold to ensure complete and even chocolate coverage of each cereal piece.
- Powdery Transformation: Combine brownie mix and confectioner’s sugar in a large zip-lock bag or container. This will create the final decadent coating for the chocolate-covered cereal.
- Final Shake: Transfer chocolate-coated cereal into the prepared bag with dry ingredients. Seal tightly and shake vigorously, rotating the bag to guarantee uniform coating of each cereal morsel.
- Setting and Storage: Spread the coated mixture on a parchment-lined baking sheet in an even layer. Allow 15-20 minutes for cooling and hardening. Once set, transfer to an airtight container for storage and future enjoyment.
Notes
- Chocolate Melting Mastery: Use low, consistent microwave heat to prevent chocolate from burning or seizing. Stir every 15-20 seconds for smooth, glossy texture.
- Coating Technique: Gently fold cereal to ensure complete chocolate coverage without crushing delicate Chex pieces. Use a large spoon or spatula for even distribution.
- Sugar Dusting Pro Tip: Sift powdered sugar and brownie mix together to eliminate clumps and create a more uniform, fine coating on each cereal piece.
- Storage Wisdom: Keep puppy chow in a cool, dry place to maintain crispness. Consume within 3-5 days for optimal texture and flavor. Refrigeration can cause moisture buildup and compromise the treat’s delightful crunch.
