Truly a quick recipe. Just made these with my mom. She'd never had them before. We enjoyed a few with a cup of milk before packing them away. A Christmas Eve surprise for my kiddos. Next time I plan to try them with milk chocolate, butterscotch chips or even heath bits. Tip: These would be the perfect confection to make when your child comes home and needs to bring treats for a bake sale!

Family tradition...until recently I didn't know it was called Muddy Buddies. I've been making this since the 60's when I was a Brownie in the Girl Scouts...we called it "Puppy Chow". My daughter got into a disagreement with a friend over he name,that's how we found out the other name.

A family favorite! I remember eating this growing up as a child and now am recreating the tradition for my family! My 2-yr-old helped me with it today. It is also my husband's office party favorite, I am asked to make it every year!
