*Chocolate. I recommend using a dark or semi-sweet variety. In my opinion, making this Puppy Chow Recipe with milk chocolate makes it too sweet. But if you have a serious sweet tooth by all means use whatever chocolate you prefer! If you need an allergy-friendly chocolate both Sunspire and Enjoy Life Foods make great options! | |||
*Rice Cereal. Chex is my favorite cereal to use (or a generic equivalent)! However many people love Crispex! | |||
*Peanut Butter. You can substitute any nut or seed butter if you're allergic to peanuts! | |||
*Powdered sugar. There's really no substitute for this. You could make your own refined sugar free variety but it will NOT be white. So if you're OK with that then go for it! 😉 | |||
'''Chilling''' | |||
*Just a note that chilling the cereal/peanut butter/chocolate mixture before adding any powdered sugar is critical to making sure you have delicious clumpy, not overly sweet, puppy chow! | |||
