Peanut Butter & White Chocolate Puppy Chow with Cadbury Mini Eggs makes for a quick and easy Easter snack that’s sure to cure that springtime sweet tooth.

White Chocolate Puppy Chow with Cadbury Mini Eggs

If you’re like me, the second you see Easter candy hit the shelves, your mind goes to one thing and one thing only. Forget the jelly beans and chocolate bunnies, and get me straight to the gold. The gold in this case being the little sinful chocolate bites we like to call Cadbury Mini Eggs. It’s hard to say when my love for these morsels began, but needless to say,  I was hooked from the start.

From the second these hit the stores, I knew I need to make something with them or else I’d eat the entire bag. My first thought was tossing them in traditional ol’ puppy chow, but if I was going to make it, I wanted to experiment with it.  And that’s when the idea came to me. Since Cadbury eggs are covered in a sweet candy shell, why not use white chocolate instead of the usual milk chocolate in the puppy chow? And then add in crushed Cadbury mini eggs? It would be the perfect combination.

How to Make This Puppy Chow Easter Snack:

Step 1: Melt Ingredients

In a glass microwavable bowl, combine the white chocolate chips, peanut butter, and butter. Stir to combine, and melt on high in the microwave for one minute. After one minute, stir the mixture, and microwave for 30 more seconds (or until mixture is smooth). Take out of the microwave and stir in the vanilla.

Step 2: Mix With Cereal

Place the Chex mix in a large heat resistant bowl & pour the hot mixture over top. Stir until evenly coated. Once covered, pour the mix into a 2-gallon resealable plastic bag or a large brown paper sack. Add the powdered sugar & shake until coated.

Step 3: Crush Cadbury Eggs & Mix-In

To break apart the Cadbury eggs, place the Cadbury Mini Eggs into a 1-gallon resealable bag. Crush with heavy object (rolling pin), until broken. Do not crush to crumbs. Mix the small chunks of Cadbury eggs into the puppy chow mixture.

What are the best white chocolate chips to use?

When baking, I typically prefer using Nestle as they melt down the best. But you can typically use any brand that you find.

I’d like to believe this combo was a win-win for everyone. I got to get rid of those temptation eggs, and the recipients got to feast on this big bowl of goodness. All I know is that it’s a good thing these things only hit the shelves once a year…because things could turn ugly real fast. It’s really just a love/hate type of relationship. (Way more love than hate, of course.)

Anyone else share this dangerous Cadbury Mini Egg addiction?
