Pumpkin Spice Chex Puppy Chow Recipe

Pumpkin Spice Puppy Chow Mix Ingredients:

Like most Chex puppy chow recipes, this pumpkin spice variation is simple and quick to make.  It only requires 5 ingredients and is ready in about 15 minutes.

To make Pumpkin Spice Puppy Chow you will need:

• Chex or square cereal
• Pumpkin puree
• Wilton white melting wafers or white chocolate chips
• Powdered sugar
• Pumpkin pie spice (make homemade pumpkin pie spice if you need some)

Pumpkin Spice Puppy Chow Mix Directions:

Start by combining the powdered sugar and pumpkin pie spice in a large plastic bag. It needs to be large enough to fit all of the cereal in it. Set the bag aside.

Next, melt the white chocolate wafers or white chocolate chips. You can use a microwave or a small pot on the stove to melt the wafers.  

If you use a stovetop, melt the wafers in a large pot to leave room to mix the cereal in right in the pot. Fewer dishes to do! In the microwave, place the chips or wafers in a bowl and cook for 10 second intervals. Stir between each interval until completely melted.

Mix together the melted wafers and the pumpkin puree. You can use a large bowl or mix it together in the pan from melting the chips.

Add the cereal to the white chocolate and pumpkin mix and gently stir until all the cereal is coated. 

Once the cereal is coated in the pumpkin puree mix, add it to the large plastic storage bag with the powdered sugar and pumpkin pie spice mix.

Again, make sure to use a nice large bag to leave space to mix.  Seal it tight and shake it around to coat the cereal.

Just looking at the finished snack mix, it doesn’t really look like pumpkin.  So add in a few fall colored sprinkles to get people wondering what flavor it is.

This is such a fun and unusual Chex puppy chow recipe that’s perfect for fall!
