Caramel Apple Puppy Chow
Ingredients:
- 5 cups Rice Chex cereal
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1 cup apple cider mix or apple drink mix
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 cup caramel bits
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
Directions:
1. In a large mixing bowl, pour the Rice Chex cereal and set aside.
2. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the caramel bits and butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each until fully melted and smooth.
3. Stir in the white chocolate chips into the caramel mixture and microwave for another 30 seconds, then stir until fully combined.
4. Add the apple cider mix and cinnamon to the melted mixture and stir well.
5. Immediately pour the caramel and white chocolate mixture over the Rice Chex cereal, gently folding to coat the cereal evenly.
6. Transfer the coated cereal into a large resealable plastic bag. Add the powdered sugar, seal the bag, and shake vigorously until every piece is well coated.
7. Spread the puppy chow on a parchment-lined baking sheet to cool and set for about 30 minutes before serving.
