- 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

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!
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.)
I subscribe to your emails! =]
