- A $25 Sam's Club Gift Card
- One (GIANT!) box of Chex Mix from Sam's Club includes a bag of Corn, Wheat & Rice Chex
Sam's Club & Chex Mix would love to help you host a fun Christmas Party Mix-Exchange, where you can swing by Sam's to pick up all your basic supplies and enjoy an easy get-together with friends and Chex Mix this Christmas.
We love Chex Mix at our house, and decided to try out their yummy recipe (the one found right on the box. . .) for Chex Mix Muddy Buddies. They were delicious! We also stopped by Sam's to pick up a few pantry staples (as always, I love their prices on milk, produce, and baking supplies: they have great everyday prices on items like vanilla, flour, sugar, and even yeast!)
Here's what you'll need to make some yummy Muddy Buddy Chex Mix in your home . . .
Muddy Buddy Chex Mix
Ingredients
- cups Corn Chex®, Rice Chex®, Wheat Chex® or Chocolate Chex® cereal (or combination) we used Rice Chex
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup peanut butter
- 1/4 cup butter or margarine
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
Directions
- Melt chocolate chips, peanut butter & butter on high for one minute, stir.

Oh I LOVE the Muddy Buddies mix recipe! I made some last year and put in Christmas containers from the dollar tree and handed them out to the many teachers, aides and therapists that work with my kiddos!
Jennifer B. says
As a couple other people have mentioned, Muddy Buddies are also known as Puppy Chow and that’s my absolute favorite Chex recipe, although the Traditional Chex Mix is a great one too. (I just don’t care for the nuts or pretzels in it.)
