Snickerdoodle Muddy Buddies are a deliciously sweet and crunchy snack made by coating crisp cereal with melted vanilla candy melts and a cinnamon sugar mixture, delivering classic snickerdoodle flavors in a fun, easy-to-make treat perfect for sharing or snacking anytime.

Ingredients

Scale

Cinnamon Sugar Coating

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 to 3 teaspoons ground cinnamon, adjust to taste

Vanilla Candy Coating

  • 1 ½ cups vanilla candy melts (12 ounces), preferably Ghirardelli brand

Cereal

  • 6 cups Corn Chex or Rice Chex cereal

Instructions

  1. Mix the Cinnamon Sugar Coating: In a large resealable container or plastic bag, combine powdered sugar, granulated sugar, and ground cinnamon. Seal the bag and shake well to thoroughly mix the cinnamon sugar coating.
  2. Melt the Vanilla Candy: Place vanilla candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl and melt in short 15-20 second intervals, stirring after each, until the mixture is smooth and fully melted.
  3. Coat the Cereal: Pour the cereal into a large mixing bowl and drizzle melted vanilla candy over it. Gently stir the cereal to ensure each piece is evenly coated with the melted candy.
  4. Coat with Cinnamon Sugar: Transfer the candy-coated cereal into the container or bag holding the cinnamon sugar mixture. Seal and shake vigorously until every piece of cereal is thoroughly coated with the cinnamon sugar.
  5. Enjoy and Store: Serve the Snickerdoodle Muddy Buddies immediately or store leftovers in an airtight container to maintain freshness.

Notes

  • This recipe yields approximately 8-10 servings, with a serving size ranging from ¾ to 1 cup.
  • For best results, use a resealable gallon-sized bag to coat the cereal evenly and minimize mess.
  • Adjust cinnamon quantity according to your preference for a milder or stronger cinnamon flavor.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week to maintain crunchiness.
