These S’mores Muddy Buddies are so easy to throw together but are such a fun treat!
One of my number one guilty pleasures is Puppy Chow. I try not to make it because when I do, I eat just so very much of it. Right behind that on the guilty pleasure list is S’mores. So, obviously those two things need to be combined.
How to Make S’mores Muddy Buddies
This is a brief overview of how to make this delicious recipe. For the full recipe with all of the measurements, see the recipe card at the bottom of the post.

Getting Marshmallows in Puppy Chow
Marshmallows and puppy chow don’t exactly go together like peanut butter and jelly. To get that great marshmallow taste in this recipe, we are doing two things. The first thing we are doing is adding marshmallow fluff into the chocolate mixture. (Please note this recipe has only been tested with marshmallow fluff and not with marshmallows that we’ve melted down.) We are also adding marshmallow bits. I love the look they give at the end of the recipe. Plus they make a great topping to my S’mores Dip.

I wish we had transitional seats. With 3 packed into the back of my SUV, we always have to get creative when it’s time to upgrade to the older seat. Yours look so cute in the back!
And hey, vacations involving grandparents always include more videos, snacks, and general kiddie debauchery. Totally acceptable!
These muddy buddies look like the perfect road trip snack!

I bet this would be good, too, with teddy grahams (do they still make those?) and the rest of the good stuff!
