So everyone knows what Muddy Buddies are, right? Some people call them Puppy Chow. My mom always called it reindeer poop. (Gross, but whatever…)
Anyways, I made this amazing fudge that tastes just like Muddy Buddies!!
I started with a recipe that I am hesitant to even link up, because it’s not really a recipe exactly… it’s a hilarious (but crude) pin I found one day on Pinterest. Click here if you really want to see it. There’s no one to site, but I adapted it anyway so here is my recipe. 🙂
Muddy Buddy Fudge
Ingredients:
1 (14oz) can sweetened condensed milk
1 lb semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup smooth peanut butter
1 tsp vanilla
Directions:
In a large bowl, combine sweetened condensed milk, chocolate chips, and peanut butter. Melt in 30 second intervals, stirring in between to make it smooth.
When it starts to thicken up and get harder to stir, add the vanilla and stir to get it all mixed in there.
Spray a pan with non-stick cooking spray. (I used a 13×9 and my fudge was pretty thin. A 9×9 would make a nice thick fudge.) Dump the fudgey mixture into the pan and press it down evenly. Let chill for at least an hour or until firm.
Cut into squares and enjoy!!
**If you want to leave out the peanut butter because of allergies (let’s face it – no one really dislikes peanut butter, do they?!), it will still be a good regular fudge recipe!
Maybe a dusting of powdered sugar to complete the full Muddy Buddy experience??
good idea! although i think they’re probably sweet enough with the sweetened condensed milk in there!
I’ve never heard of Muddy Buddies before! I have heard of puppy chow, but I never had it (I know, crazy!). I MUST try this – I’ve never met a peanut butter/chocolate combo I haven’t liked 🙂
you’ve NEVER had muddy buddies?! you must make them!! they seem so simple but they are one of the best and easy to make snacks ever!!
I’ve never heard of muddy buddies either. Your fudge looks awesome!
