Caramel Apple Puppy Chow

This is the 450th post at Vegetarian & Cooking! check out the Milestones tab above for other milestones. 

This sounded like the best idea ever, so I had to make it. I love caramel apple anything, and puppy chow seemed like a good way to make it into an easy to eat snack. This made so much (and I would definitely start eating it and not be able to stop), so I brought it into work, everyone in my office liked it too.

I found this recipe on Your Cup of Cake.

Ingredients:
-8 C. Apple Rice Chex Cereal
-7 Milky Way Bars (I used 12 mini)
-1/2 C. butter
-12 caramel cubes
-3/4 C. powdered sugar

-3 Tbsp. cocoa powder

Cut the Milky way's into small pieces. I saved some
for the top.

Melt the butter, caramel and candy.

Mix the Chex and the melted chocolate caramel in a big bowl.

Empty the mixture into a bag with the powdered sugar and
cocoa powder into a ziploc bag and shake it up.

Empty onto a cookie sheet to cool.
I added more powdered sugar because it was sticking together.

Apple Chex Cereal was a little hard to find, they didn't have it at the first store I went to, but they had it at the second. The apple flavor was a little strong for some people, but I thought it was pretty good.
