This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Chex™. The opinions and text are all mine.
Christmas is just around the corner! I have had so much fun making new recipes with my kids this year. We have made so many recipes that I have needed to send gifts to my neighbors. One of the staples of the holidays has always been Chex™ Muddy Buddies™ Party Mix. It's crunchy, has a delicious peanut butter and chocolate flavor, and is covered in powdered sugar. It's always the first snack we run out of at holiday parties.
But this year there is a new recipe that has more chocolate and peanut butter and more crunch. You are going to have your friends begging for this recipe! The new recipe adds Chocolate Peanut Butter Cheerios™, peanuts, and peanut butter cups. It's everything I love!

This looks wonderful!
Wow, this sounds delicious!! I am definitely going to be making my family a batch (or two!) of this! 🙂 Thank you so much for sharing the recipe!
One year I made Chex Mix that I 'ruined' by microwaving the chocolate chips a little too much. The chocolate set in big chunks rather than coat the mix. It was a big hit, lol. Everyone liked it. See, you can't go wrong with Chex Mix!
This is the ultimate snack i love this
This Chex recipe sounds marvelous and I can't wait to try it. Thanks for the coupon, the recipe and the Publix grocery list. A new Public just opened here six months ago.
I can't eat nuts (:() so I'd make it without them. This looks so good!
You had me at peanut butter this looks and sounds so YUMMY!! Thanks for sharing it I cant wait to try it out.
So many yummy flavors in this one. Fun to make for the holidays.
This is such a wonderful snack. We often make this and call it Puppy chow, but I haven't done with peanut butter Chex before. But I am going to!!!
This is my favorite flavor combo! What a great gluten-free gift for neighbors and coworkers. I love giving handmade gifts. I'll definitely be making a batch of these!
My mom used to make chex mix for every holiday and family party we had
I love peanut butter and chocolate. I wonder how many different creations you can come up with for this mixture. Might be fun to get creative.
You had me at peanut butter. I love to make mixes for movie night. This one sounds yummy and I think the grandsons would love it. Thank you for the recipe.
This sounds so delicious and yummy, I am going to have to make some and give them a try!
I love all varieties of Chex Mix! You had me at peanut butter with this one!
We can't celebrate the holiday without this tasty treat.
I remember my mom making a Chex mix. It had Chex, peanuts & pretzels and she baked it in the oven.
Chex mix is one of my go to recipes for holiday gatherings.
Great recipe! Just what I need to make for my Christmas party!
We love chex mix. And this one sounds so yummy
My kids will love eating this
I made breads, fudge, and cookies today. I think a mix like this would be good when we play the games everyone gets for Christmas. I am going to try this and see how it goes over. Well, lets put it this way, see if I have any left for me. LOL
I love mixing up a Chex Mix every year. This one looks like a winner.
This is so good,and perfect for work parties of gifts.I’ve never made it myself,but I’m considering making this instead of the fudge or candy I usually make.Not so much work for my ailing body.
I try to make a variety of cookies for friends and family. And a few neighbors. I might have to think about adding this as well.
another delicious recipe from chex, yummy
Thanks for the super handy shopping list.
This sounds like a delightfully enjoyable mix. Can't wait to try it.
I'm going to a Hanukkah party tomorrow and need to bring a treat. This looks perfect. It's easy to make and sure to be a crowd pleaser for both adults and children. Thank you!!! 🙂
Now that is my kind of party mix.
Chex Mix of any variety is good. Adding Peanut Butter just makes it extra good!
Yum!!
This is a great finger food to have handy anytime of the year! Love it!
This looks great. With a severe peanut and Nut allergy I would substitute Chocolate Cheerios, Sunbutter and leave out the peanuts
So we tried it and boy is it a winner!! The added peanut butter cups are pure genius!!
That looks delicious! I can;t wait to try it.
this makes me so hungry every time I see it !
This looks so very good will have to make this soon thank you for the recipe.
I could eat an entire bowl of this on my own. I love peanut butter!
Chex has been around since I was a kid, it's a classic. I love Chex! The snacks are so good! I love peanut butter & chocolate but haven't tried this particular recipe, yet.
ALWAYS HAD THIS AS A KID AND NOW MAKE FOR MY KIDS. WE MAKE IT EVERY WEEKEND AND WATCH MOVIES.
Yum!! I wish my son didn't have a peanut allergy 🙁
That looks delicious!
I love the chocolate and peanut combo.
The only problem I'd have with this recipe is not eating the ingredients as I make it, lol. It looks too good!
Great idea for Christmas gifts. Easy enough for my teenagers to make and it sounds delicious!
My niece just gave me the powdered sugar chow chow. Anything made with Chex is good!
Love the recipe. Great for office parties.
Love the recipe using the chocolate cereal and adding peanut butter cups. Yum!
So, my plan this holidays was to grab a bunch of ingredients for making some slime... screw that! THIS is what I'll be making instead. *drools*
I would be eating all the peanut butter cups before I got it made, lol. This looks really tasty.
It looks so good.
I've not tried the Chocolate Peanut Butter Cheerios before, but I imagine they're pretty good!
I am so planning on making these as soon as I can get the ingredients Thank you so very much for sharing this recipe I can't wait to try it.
What I love about Chex Mix is that you can always add or subtract ingredients to suit your taste or allergies. This one looks good!
It's a standby favorite and makes perfect gifts. We love this recipe.
My husband makes the chex mix every year for Christmas and it is something we all look forward to.
I certainly like the flavors in this. Chocolate and peanut butter can't be beat.
Home Made Muddy Buddies are the best. Beats store bought.
This looks delicious and I know my family will love it. I will make during the holidays.
This looks so good, what a wonderful treat!
Oh thank you for this! Drooling. I'm making this tomorrow to bring on our weekend round robin!
This would be a great Chex Mix recipe. I love the idea of peanut butter & chocolate & Chex.
What a neat idea, thanks for sharing. It looks delicious.
I think this sounds great! I h0pe someone makes this for the holidays! Or any kind of Chex mix would be good!
that looks really good but a little messy. have not tried the peanut butter cheerios yet they look good.
Chocolate and Peanut Butter is one of my favorite combos..... That looks like an awesome snack! 🙂
