Mmm Mmm Monday- Puppy Chow for National Puppy Day

Did you know today is national puppy day? It's a day to celebrate the puppies in our lives and to help those that need to be in someone's life 

SO for today's Mmm Mmm Monday I present: PUPPY CHOW! This is one of my Sweetie's favorite foods, (It's for humans, not for dogs, it contains chocolate, which produces the same effect in dogs as cocaine/heroin in people and could seriously harm them!) This recipe is great for hiking trips (in a plastic baggie) at a puppy themed birthday party, or just as a snack

Ingredients:
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/4 cup butter
1 cup Chocolate Chips
1/2 teaspoon Vanilla
9 cups crispix cereal (any flavor)
1-1/2 cups powdered sugar

Directions:
1. Combine Peanut butter, butter and chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl (all Longaberger bowls are microwave safe!)
2. Microwave for one minute then stir to blend all ingredients thoroughly, Add 1/2 tsp vanilla, stir well.
3. Place the 9 cups crispix cereal in a very large bowl (may i suggest the Large Tip and Mix, or the large mixing bowl) 
4. Pour the melted mixture over the cereal and toss evenly making sure all the cereal is coated.
5. Sprinkle some of the powdered sugar over the mixture, tossing as you add a little more each time. 

For extra fun, serve in a Clean dog bowl (they're dishwasher safe) super cute photo op at a kids party!
