Ingredients: GREEN PUPPY CHOW 4 cups chex cereal 1 cup green candy melts (like Wilton brand) 1/2 tbsp vegetable oil 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter 3/4 cup powdered sugar BROWN PUPPY CHOW 4 cups chex cereal 1 cup chocolate chips 1/2 tbsp vegetable oil 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter 3/4 cup powdered sugar ADD INS Football almonds - whole almonds and small batch of royal icing: 1/2 cup powdered sugar 1/2 tsp meringue powder 1/2 tbsp water White m&ms
Directions: TO MAKE THE ROYAL ICING Combine the powdered sugar, meringue powder, and water in a mixing bowl and mix until the icing has a matte appearance, about 2 minutes. You may need to add a little more water to get the right consistency. You don’t want the icing to be runny, but have a thicker consistency, but you don’t want it to be too thick where you can’t get it out of the squeeze bottle. Transfer to a squeeze bottle or ziploc bag with one corner cut off. On each almond draw the center football stripe. Allow the royal icing to harden, 10-15 minutes before adding the football stitches. Draw 3 stitches on each almond. Allow the royal icing to harden completely before adding the footballs to the puppy chow. GREEN PUPPY CHOW Measure out 4 cups of chex cereal into a gallon plastic bag. Combine the green candy melts, vegetable oil, and peanut butter in a pot over low heat on the stove. Occasionally stir with a spatula until the chocolate is smooth and melted. Pour the melted chocolate into the plastic bag. Zip it shut and shake to evenly coat the cereal with chocolate. Add 3/4 cup powdered sugar to the bag, zip, and shake again. If the puppy chow is too sticky, add more powdered sugar 1/4 cup at a time. Set aside. BROWN PUPPY CHOW Measure out 4 cups of chex cereal into a gallon plastic bag.
