Sometimes I forget how easy it is to veganize some things. Puppy Chow aka chocolate peanut butter sugar dusted pillows of deliciousness were an easy go to recipe back in the day. Nostalgia reared it's head last week when I was working on some vegan chex mix savory mixes. I still had cereal, and a little voice requested puppy chow (so she's 27 and it was clearly a grown female voice, but that's beside the point).
Here's what I did. And the result? Ahhh. sugar dusted chocolate peanut butter pillows of deliciousness!
4 Cups of cereal of choice, like Chex. I used half rice/half corn.
1/4 Cup peanut butter (I used natural chunky, just peanuts and salt)
1/2 Cup vegan chocolate chips
1 TBSP oil (I used coconut oil but Earth Balance margarine or equivalent should work)
2/3 Cup vegan powdered sugar. (You can make your own if you have the patience and a high speed blender...)
Melt peanut butter, chocolate chips and oil. Mix well. Dump in cereal and stir until coated.
In a large zipper bag dump the powdered sugar. Then dump the cereal mixture over the sugar and close bag and begin shaking until all the cereal is coated. Serve. Enjoy the nostalgia.
