- 9 cups Chex cereal (282 grams)
- 2 cups butterscotch chips (367 grams)
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter (56.6 grams)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups powdered sugar (227 grams) divided
Add the cereal to a large bowl.
9 cups Chex cereal
In a large measuring cup, melt the butterscotch chips and butter together on high for 1 minute. Stir together. Stir in the vanilla extract and stir the mixture until smooth. The mixture will be extremely thick and not pourable.
2 cups butterscotch chips, 1/4 cup unsalted butter, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Add the mixture to the cereal. Use clean hands to combine. In traditional puppy chow, the mixture can be stirred to coat the cereal. Here the mixture is so thick that you will need to work it into the cereal with clean hands, breaking up clumps of butterscotch. It will seem like it isn't coming together and then it will.
2 cups powdered sugar
Pour the mixture into a clean plastic bag. Pour 1 1/2 cups of powdered sugar over the mixture and shake to combine. If necessary add the remaining 1/2 cup of powdered sugar into the bag and toss to combine.
Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
