Chocolate-Muddy-Buddies

You can make a large quantity of this snack in just a few minutes. It makes a great after school snack. We also like to take it camping or on day hikes. It’s so versatile, that you can even dress it up for any holiday just by adding M&Ms (red/pink/white for Valentine’s Day, red/white/blue for 4th of July, red/green for Christmas, etc.). We think your family will love it!

Substitutions work well in this recipe, so try any nut butter, butter substitute or even almond bark.
