Pistachio Puppy Chow is a sweet and crunchy snack mix made with crispy cereal coated in creamy white chocolate and flavored with pistachio pudding mix, then dusted with powdered sugar.

Ingredients

Scale

Cereal

  • 9 cups crispy rice cereal

Chocolate Coating

  • 12 oz white chocolate chips or white baking chocolate
  • 1 package (3.4 oz) instant pistachio pudding mix

Coating

  • 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chocolate: Melt the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth and fully melted.
  2. Coat the Cereal: Place the crispy rice cereal in a large mixing bowl. Pour the melted white chocolate over the cereal. Gently stir with a spatula or wooden spoon until every piece is evenly coated in the melted chocolate.
  3. Add Pudding Mix: Sprinkle the instant pistachio pudding mix over the chocolate-coated cereal. Toss gently to combine the flavor evenly throughout the mix.
  4. Sugar Dusting: Transfer the cereal mixture into a large resealable plastic bag or container with a lid. Add the powdered sugar, seal it securely, and shake well until all pieces are covered with powdered sugar.
  5. Cool and Serve: Spread the coated puppy chow on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to cool completely and harden. Once set, store in an airtight container. Serve as a sweet snack or dessert.

Notes

  • For best results, use a high-quality white chocolate to enhance flavor and texture.
  • Ensure the cereal is completely dry before coating to prevent sogginess.
  • You can substitute pistachio pudding mix with vanilla or other flavors for variety.
  • Store puppy chow in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
  • Be gentle when stirring to avoid crushing the cereal pieces.
