These babies are like a white chocolate and snickerdoodle combo, or churros dipped in white chocolate!
Muddy buddies might just be my favorite snack. They’re so good they’re practically addicting. So after creating a new version last week with the s’mores muddy buddies I knew that I had to try even more flavors. (I know, I’m pretty late to the game!) Well, these snickerdoodle muddy buddies are another completely irresistible treat.
They’re made from General Mills Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cereal, coated in white chocolate and covered in a cinnamon powdered sugar. They’re little bites of white chocolate cinnamon goodness.
The cinnamon toast crunch cereal is the perfect base for these muddy buddies because it just gives them that extra cinnamon sugar kick!

How to make Snickerdoodle Muddy Buddies?

- Add in some pumpkin pie spice of apple pie spice to the powdered sugar with the cinnamon for a fun flavor twist.

This snickerdoodle puppy chow is a delicious new twist on the classic puppy chow recipe. It has the same great flavor of a snickerdoodle cookie, all wrapped up into a delicious snack mix.
It’s a great snack, or a fun treat for the holiday season. I’d love this served up at a holiday party, or it’s a great option for packaging up in bags to give to your neighbors as a yummy holiday treat.
